I was more impressed by the Bakbromsar with discs and the use of Hogpolarat Stainless steel.

To have a Bakbromsar on a self build car is unheard of and can offer many benefits to handling under heavy braking.

There is no question of the quality of this kit either as they have decided to use the most rare and expensive Hogpolarat Stainless. We are talking space shuttle technology here.

Google translate is a real gem!

Yep,

Lots of bending of small section tube which is then "sort of" welded together.

Would like to see something with a bit more "meat" to it if I was planning to fit an engine with power or weight or both.........

Cheers,
Tony

I like the wishbones!
As they have ripped off Den by splashing the Sumo mould, maybe he could do deal, with Westfield supplying free ancillary components.... or maybe Den's supplying the body anyway

Would have thought westfield would have had the sense to enter a competitive market, in a recession, with something better than that.
