Either should be just as useable as the other
However styling is down to personal taste

(IMVPO) anything but the Vindicator, from a styling point of view

Thats why I said Mk and an Mk will sell better when it comes to it.

Hi there!
My preference between the two would be the Velocity, based purely on looks.
But it's not my view that counts.
As previously stated, why not pay MK a visit, along with Mac1 and even GBS? ( I never thought I would hear myself recommending GBS/Robin Hood, but the Zero looks OK)
I doubt that there will be much in the way of discernable difference for road use though.
Look at the weather equipment if that is a factor.
Are you looking to build a car or buy one ready built?

For road use, defo not the vindicator, unless you live in a village stuck in the 70s/80s where taste has been forgotten.

Use one in public and it will make the children cry as you drive by.

unless its an old design MK where the rear suspension is designed wrong

TBH you need to look arround the show at the build quality. I bought my Luego on the quality of the welding and fabrication (mine was the original batch 4 years ago)

when i got the geo set up they said the chassis tolerances were better that the average westfield!! thats quite good.

if i was buying another id concider the one made from round tube (i forget the name) they were at the show with a westfield copy nosecone in white? it uses MX5 running gear?





Why didn't i just make it simple!

I would beg to differ. Granted the looks are not the best in the world but to each his own

Everyone in our town likes my vindicator but that maybe cos its the 4 seater

OP if you want to go out in a sprint family im not that far away for a day trip

Drop me a PM
