Hi. It may be worth you starting your own welcome thread with some pics of your car so not to swallow this one up. It looks very nice and I'm sure peeps are going to be asking about it.

A few pics taken today of the red #Kobra while it was sunny.

It’s complete for now. I will concentrate on tweaking the interior in the new year.

I am enjoying driving it. Even in this temperature

Dave

Looking good.

Today I went to the National Kitcar Show at Stoneleigh. There were lots of cars there covering 7s, buggies, Cobras, Fezzas etc.

In a small group there were these “be naughty with a Z3” kits. They are a few body types so thought the pics might be of interest.

Hi Dave. Good to meet you today. I was the blue one parked to the right of yours as you look from the front. Amazing to see the different variations possible! Hope you didn't lose anything on way home?

So 2nd year passing MOT for the Kobra. Bloody cheap landrover series 2 lights let me down on way to test but after fixing them passed with no advisories. Will be sourcing new light fittings me thinks. Another year of motoring and tweaking ensues.
