is it not each to their own

and why not try to make a car better ?

Well, technically, S2000 is the car, and this engine is F20C. Happy for you, Tilly, I think this is the awesomest engine for a Seven.

Yes it is each to their own and yes it is good to make a car better BUT putting a mad engine in something that doesn't handle and is worth less than 10p is a waste of time and effort.:)

Alga .... a man after my own heart you are indeed corect it is the F20C and im so glad someone is as podantic as myself with technicalitys... lol

as for this debate on fitting a S2000 lump into a robbin hood at inital thought it does seem abit of a waste, BUT and it is a big BUT...
If it makes the owner happy and puts a smile on there face then it is worrth every penny, every drop of sweat, tears and blood that it takes to fulfill there desire on the flip side if they find that they dont like it at the end of the day then yes is has indeed been a waste of time but that judgment can only be made by the person who drives the car, people may think its pointless but if it makes the driver smile then its worth it.

A Robin Hood looks very similar to a Haynes Roadster, or am I missing something?:confused:

the old robbin hood are very differant, the new GBS (formaly robin hood) Zero is similar

Ahh I see!

quick update

couple of engine mounts welded in, still some bracing tubes to be added to the bay area and also look what the post man gave me today.... :)

bit of extra chassis


this will be crossed when done rather than just being a single

Nice work Tilly :cool:

That Roadster is gonna be "something else" with that engine :eek: :cool: ( & I thought it was quick when you took me for spin at stoneleigh )

Enjoying watching your progress .
