Tryed to build a locost but failed,so are robin hoods any good or should i build a wesfield.
Ps cant do a locost now as moved house and dont have the time to start from scratch.

Most would say luego, mk or stuart taylor i think, buy it as a kit and throw it together. or buy a turnkey. if u feel excessively rich and feel like parting with money for no real gain, go for an eastfield or the like!

i'd be a bit wary of buying a Shoddy Hood for the money spent on one i'd rather chance my luck with an avon, of corse it isnt that much more for an MK, Leugo or ST, try going that way....

or if time is a problem, have you considered a part built locost at the rolling stage????? one goes every month or so on ebay / findit

There's a 95% built one in the For Sale section today!

I personally wouldn't touch a Robin Hood or a Lolocost chassis - Poor quality IMHO.

Don't think you could go wrong with Luego, MK or Stuart taylor.

Westfield are expensive, and no better quality than any of the above.

Cheers
