The MK is being sold 90% complete.

For those of you who remember, i built my car in the garage loft. Everybody who has ever seen it up there, or read my build diary have said "how the hell are you going to get it out of there!!"

Well here you go (sorry about crap camera phone pics)

That looks like a firly interesting manouver, well done

I remember your build very well, I used your build diary as a point of reference qite a few times both before and during my build.

Must have been a mildly tense few minutes actually getting it down from there

Have you sold up so you can build again?

holly crap look at how you store it! wild!

I'm gutted we are selling it, especially as it is so close to being finished, but i just don't have time and need the cash for a house move. I've also got an s1 Elise that i use on track, so i get my thrills from that!!!

Its the first time we had seen it on the wheels, it looked great!!

Could this be an ebay scam, you bid on it and it says buyer collects, when you get round to pick it up its stuck half in the roof.
No pictures of it finaly on the ground then.
Joking aside it amazes me what you lot get up to, i was even advised to build mine in a big shed in the back garden and crane it over the house when i had finished.

I thought you had finished it Austen! I remember when I first started building mine your website was great inspiration.

I thought you had finished which is why you werent on the site anymore. Have you not touched it for a long time?


MK9R - 15/12/06 at 07:50 PM

Not touched it for 12 months, and probably only 2 or 3 times the 12 months before that!! Its soooo close, but its just not gonna happen
