Apologies for this but the kit car section is addictive. Today's treats include:

The bastard child of a Bristol Beaufighter and a Reliant Robin

The Nova has been discrbed as a cross between a GT40 and a Fararri

In what sick, twisted workld would this be considered to be a treat?

Yes, it's Dutton Day on eBay!

I think the ride height needs a tweek.

Last and most certainly least

Edit: To be fair at least the seller of the last one doesn't take it too seriously

Do you want to be the laughing stock of your street or do you just want to upset the neighbours. Perhaps you want the missus to leave you. Well this is just the ticket. It is also suitable for clowns and I can even deliver it for you at an extra cost.

My fav is the Nova

No, it has to be the fellow selling for his mate the car may be the least but the description made me laugh too.

If most of the other ones i've seen are anything to go by, one of those beasts is usually classed as a 'audi tt replica'

Yes one of those going for the buggy look

Spoke to banham about a mini roadster kit out of curiosity asked about the TT replica.
Really pissed the poor chap off oops!
It's not meant to be a TT alike at all he's been making the kits for longer than the TT has been around .

Didn't have the heart to tell him I laugh at pictures of them.

Slightly off topic, but just noticed this on ebay, very expensive for a damaged ferrari

£6 million ferrari

[CupidKnewRap]

Doing well for an item thats not for sale online

The little metro TT thing would be funny for £75 Nova is a kit car company name. They are a rare kit car, not my cup of tea but lots of aircooled vw people like them.

The same could be said for the 411 but I don't think that is sufficient justification for the continued existence of them.

I don't know what do say really How can these people be so delusioned (sp?) And more to the point how the feck can the people that designed these abominations sit back and look at their work and think 'fcuk me, that looks stunning!!' The last one is a cracker though Has anyone seem this months sniffpetrol - the McLaren F1 replica made it onto there!!

I don't believe that for a second

The only ones I have seen on ebay are less than 2 years old

Oh sh*t, I'm becoming a Banham expert

The owner didn't even have the courage to wheel it into the street for the pics.

I like the way he's made the dash - basically he's gone down to B&Q and bought a bit of 6 by 2 and cut a couple of holes in it

He's also used the most bang up to date photos he could find

Pedal alignment looks peachy for some heel and toe action

The bastard child of a Bristol Beaufighter and a Reliant Robin

To be fair Jim, if that is a Bristol, it's one of their better ones.
