No Monster thats bling you narna.

Nobody should have to apolagise for their products or give reasons why they do what they do and as I said previously the choice is the person/person's own and if they choose one over the other then so be it.
I have commented on what I have recieved first hand and it was first class, I cannot and will not comment on others goods or parts.

I agree with comments about the forum being for the good and support of all the builders and for those supplying parts etc but what it should not be is a place to get into arguments otherwise we may end up like others.

At the end of the day its your Roadster (thanks to CG/MK)build it as you see fit with your choice of parts.

Dinner time,could do with monkey burger but its too far.

Cheers.

UUUURGGG... Cack Mac...

Not a patch on a Burger King, which is not a patch on a "Harraby Inn" Burger or a Monkey Burger...

Mmmmmm.... Hungry.

A mixed gorrila from that pub just outside Brampton on the way to Carlisle !
Must be the aftershave Spud .

Mc Donalds, I'd rather die.....!

And on a lighter/brighter note I got loads done to the car today and the rear suspension is nearly sorted plus other bits and pieces. Yes !!!

Depending on which road.. Either the Lane Ends , or the Golden Fleece..


I had the Mixed Grill From the Lane ends a couple of months back for the wifes grandas 90'th...

Not the bigest I have had but rather big... They used to do a super Lamb in orange sauce but it seems to have been droped now ... It's one of my favourite pubs for grub.

hi, ive just started, building my chassis from a kit a bought from talon,
the chassis is already all spot welded the kit was great.
As for customer service , well you couldnt get better , even when i was asking all sorts of questions!
by the way, i live in france and i recieved my kit in 4 days for 50quid, now thats what i call service!
I thought i would just give my feedback on this company.

thanks mike

Wow only just read the rest of this thread after my holiday.
Didn't realise it set everyone going.
The bit I like about these forums (and locostbuilders) is you can ask questions and get opinions you then do your research a bit more informed.
As I've been out of the game for two years I'd lost track to who was supplying what, so a quick, who is supplying what in flat pack is exactly what these forums are for.

I enjoyed building my chassis last time even though it took months at the end I was so proud (wish I hadn't sold it for absolute peanuts!!!), I don't think I'd have that with a pre built one and now my welding skills are well up to the job I hope it can be put together pretty quickly.

I moved from engineering to business development and marketing and I'd just like to say there are a lot of factors to purchasing decisions, it's a complex subject but there's lots of books on the topic. If i had a good product at a competitive price I'd be doing my research if it wasn't selling as well as the competition a couple of tweaks to strategy could work wonders.I'm available freelance BTW

Happy Building everyone.
