Default Finished car

Hi all,

Passed the IVA test on Wednesday after 6 years and 10 months of building!

Some pictures of the car for anyone interested...





Pre IVA track day at Castle Combe



Working through the DVLA paperwork now so fingers crossed it won't be long until it's on the road!

These photos don't seem to be working for me annoyingly. Here's the link for my flickr account with three recent photos and some from a very long time ago!

Yes, had to juggle school and then uni with building it. But, as you say, they're never finished.

New seats are in, next up is an aeroscreen and then probably a duratec conversion and change the rear suspension so I can run 13" wheels.

Well done Ben. It's never finished as you say. Nice colour but I am biased.
