Time to say hello
Hi Everyone
I've taken delivery of my MNR Vortx.
I went for the inboard suspension and full cage, with R1 power.
Build has just started, got the bulkhead panels on, pedal box and master cylinders mounted, all the brake lines run and P clipped.
Got a long way to go - but look forward to it.
I've met Ian who was good enough to take me for a spin in his V8 - wow !
And Chris from the BEC Club.
Just wanted to say hello and will probably be asking for advice from you kind people at some point.
Rob

Nice choice of location for a Seven too!! Lots of exceedingly 7 friendly roads round that neck of the woods...
blatting round the North Circular doesn't have the same attraction as whipping over the York Dales!!!!
Good luck with the build.

Wow !!
What a welcome, thanks guys.
I went for a one stop shop with Chris and Marc, so everything is the garage waiting to be put together.
I intend to get it together quite quickly, but quality of work comes before speed of assembly.
I've blown my budget out of the water, but what the hey - you only live once.
Thanks for all the kind offers of help and advice - I will be drawing on your experience.
Cheers
Rob

Hi Rob
My brother bill went up to mnr last year to buy an R1 powered vortx, after hearing it I bought one to.
Good luck in the build.

Whatever you end up spending on it will certainly be cheaper than any new Caterham. Good luck on your build!
