It would be really handy to clarify the mx5 build for newbies. My car is being built using 3 sets of plans ! Haynes plans, gillham & ssc. Shock legnths are a grey area, not to mention spring rates !
if we don't take steps now to allow for mazda & bmw donors, by using 1 standard set of plans for a specific donor, the haynes Roadster will start to fizzle out. Maybe it's time to form an owners club now, group buys et , where we pay £40 a year or whatever, & start having club stands at shows & just celebrate the mark. We work 3 times harder than any other kit car builders, why are we not shouting about our achievements ? Over the years on here, there have been roadsters produced of a much higher quality than a factory kit ! Locost ? No chance ! Just sweat & graft. oh, and shed loads of ear ache !
