I had the same problem 2 years ago. The fact that the Locosts are getting kind of old helped me decide on the Haynes, The fact that a well established mx5 design is fantastic as in my mind these are the best donor around today.
The looks are not too wide when you see them in real life. To fix this i added an extra 175mm to the engine bay to stretch it out a bit more(not that it needed fixing!)
In my mind the Haynes has way more pros than cons compared to the locost. Also the community is fantastic! You should come to Stonleigh show and see some in the flesh. Im hoping to get my one down there un its unrunning state
