As I dont have any right handed spanners do I... Buy or build an MK Indy

The whole fun of a 7 is to build it, then have the excitement of finally rolling it out under its own power. Go buy a mass production car if you want to buy and drive

Build it !! it's cheaper, and if anything goes wrong, you'll know how to fix it !!

Build a "book" car from scratch and wait 3 to 4 years to drive it.

Now that's character building!!!!!!!!!!!

Build I think you will get more enjoyment out of it

I got me more of that character than you can shake a stick at.

Mind you, you're from Texas, so your stick's almost certainly bigger than mine

Buy one and enjoy it while you can before you get old!

Wy not do both...! Buy one, thrash about it it whilst you make a second. Only the depreation payed for then!

If like me you're the kind of person who likes building things for fun, then you'll enjoy building a Locost from scratch. At the moment my hobby is car building.

If you have little interest in the construction side then buy a kit - something from the usual suspects will still be cheaper than Westfailed or Cateringham, and you'll still be able to say that you played a major part in its construction.

When I finish this car my hobby will be car driving/car upgrading/car modifying...
