Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).

I put down 450 kg, 450 kg and 900 kg gross. This is the same as on my manufactures plate. The examiner said that was ok.

yep they are the numbers I used.... BUT the way I built mine sent my rear axle weight over but being the manufacturer you can just write it down on a piece of paper informing them /him of a specification change

I did the same. My MX5 build is weighing in at ~620kg without fuel so if there is more than 450 over the back something is up!

Cheers
