Mx5 based Lotus 11 replica

i appreciate that this might be sacrilege for some but does anyone fancy this?

I always liked the Lotus 11.  Would make a great track day or race car.

Its a way to make use of rotted NBs (front chassis rail) which otherwise don’t have much of a future.

Stunning. The quality looks superb. From 10k makes it a bit pricey for me.

As an expert at failing to complete kit car builds I can say it looks great, but will cost twice as much, and take twice as long to build as you expect, and unless you pay meticulous attention to detail it will still look like a kit.
The obvious thing to do if you are patient enough is to wait until a built one comes onto the market when you can probably buy it at about half what it cost.

Hi

totally agree that this is a beautiful car. Impractical but beautiful. The MX5 mechanicals are so good they deserve to go on after the car would otherwise be scrapped due to tin worm!

So not sacrilege in my book.

Too pricey for me but a great option for anyone with a rusty MX5 and some cash to burn!

Westfield have done one for a few years based on the Sprite/Midget. https://westfield-sportscars.co.uk/showroom-brochures/westfield-xi-kits/
