![]() Good luck with the build. The expenses do at up. A couple of 100 a month over a couple of years. Always vary when people start on a shoestring, if you have a long term view you will get there.

![]() I bought a donor from here. I have gone down the mx5 route so if you need a hand or want to see how I've done things let me know. I found a company in rowlands gill who dismantle and race mx5s
They have been invaluable during my build http://www.akautomotive-mx5.co.uk
