Malvern National Kit Car Show 2023 

We’re trying to promote the industry as a whole - this is why we’re very different to other manufacturers. We’re enthusiastic individuals as you can probably tell.

How sad, could have been really good.

Point taken and thank you for your feedback. We’ve had this comment a few times now so we will try and take this on board. Appreciate you sending your thoughts so we can get better.

Sorry, hopefully we’ll mail it for next time

Point taken, will try and do better at Newark in a few weeks time.

You sound like you need another one if your life….

@@MKSportscarsofficial I am in The United States and I fell in love with the 1928 Morgan RIP with a GN rear making it a 4 wheeled Special. It is clearly an Aero and Charlie Martin drove? piloted it in 2015 trying to keep it from spinning around and being squirrels most of the times coming out of corners. Because Morgan did their best in '28 to make this little Aero just like the aeroplanes of the time I decided to scratch build one here in the US. I tried my best to keep the pieces as British as possible mating the ONAN opposed twin airplane engine to an MGB 4 speed giving it a reverse gear as a bonus. I made a driveshaft that terminates in an MGB rear differential with working juice brakes (unlike the GN rear on the original car). I am using oak and Ash where needed for the passenger area attached to the sturdy metal frame that is completely hidden by the aircraft fabric sprayed with plastic dope like the old aircraft. In keeping with the aircraft theme I am going to hand make a mahogany dashboard populated with aircraft gauges along with a pump for extra oiling and another for fuel pressure in the reserve tank. For all intents and purposes my replica could fly if wings were attached and a prop was fitted to the pto of the front engine. I am going to video the build and take a plethora of pictures at every car show and contest it enters.

@@Biokemist-o3k Mind blown, blown away, far far away!

Thanks buddy, appreciate the feedback.

Yep, point taken, thank you for your feedback - we need this to get better 👍🏻

Thanks for the feedback, we’ll take this on board and try and do better next time at Newark at the end of July #watchthisspace

We can only blame covid and the wife’s cooking for the waist, however the film seems to have gone down well with many positive reviews.

@@MKSportscarsofficialIKR…I was going to make a smarta55 comment about your belt buckle. 😅😅😅 Ahh, the English language and how frustrating it must be for ESL speaker/writers. Cheers! 🖖😎👍

Agreed, sh*t camera man

Why would you want to see someone talking about a car, instead of the actual car, at a car show! Numpty….

@@samsonian some of us have our own language, we are not the lap dogs that you are , the message was in your so called world butt licking language, English the language of the cowards of the Anglo Boer war that was fighting woman and children when the British 450 000 highly trained British English speaking soldiers asses got kicked by a mere 46 000 Boers , ordinary farmers, I see it still hurts by your idiotic comments , shame , glad you got the message and understand the comment I made no matter about the spelling .

Thanks Colin, we try

Where were you? Make sure you come to the Newark show at the end of July.

@@MKSportscarsofficial never been to a kit car show so might have to add it to the calender 👍

Consider it done - kettle will be on and we’re doing a live event so we can scare the pants off you in our workz race car.

Thanks, make sure you come and say hello and we’ll make you a brew👍🏻👍🏻

Point taken, we will try and do better at Newark in a few weeks time

This seems to be the trend from the comments. Point taken and we will take this on board. Thank you for providing the feedback - normally people just moan and don’t actually bother to feed back, so we can’t get better at what we do. Thanks Neil

@@MKSportscarsofficial Get a steady cam device, I got dizzy watching this

We’ll see if we can try and get this licked for the Newark show in 2 weeks time.

Amen brother 👍🏻

Well, some of us live in other countries but do buy British vehicles. This show tour was 90% Lotus Seven derivatives, a little bit Cobras and Gt40s, Atoms and then the rest. Most of us know about these common kit cars but are more interested in the less well known cars. If the presenters intent was to relay the health and potential for the growth of the British kit car industry, he didn't help it much. Too much of seeing his mug and the camera swinging wildly around left a lot out. I was disappointed and felt watching was almost a complete waste of my time. I look forward to a better presentation next year.

@@philipgrice1026 thank you for the feed back - subscribe to the channel and we will take your comments on board to do better next time. It’s great to know what you want to see, so we appreciate that. Our marquee is the lotus 7 derivative so we focused on this as this is what we perceived our subscribers would want to see. Subscribe and we will try and show more at the Newark show next month 👍🏻

@@philipgrice1026 : I was about to comment on this video, then I read your comment and realised I was going to say exactly the same thing!

@jamesslade554 : RU-vid is a global platform... I would have loved to have visited, but New Zealand is about as far away as it is possible to get.

Sorry. We’re trying

Awesome

Sorry, we’ve taken these comments on board for the Newark kit car show film. How did we do? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5vQ26b33d2Y.html

Oh come on, did you want a film with cheesy music and poor cut always showing cars and not our global mega star leading you round the event?

@@MKSportscarsofficial I got neither.

Ouch - tough crowd

Yep, had to shut it down.

@@MKSportscarsofficialno matter how cocky you are, your video was unwatchable. Absolutely terrible.

Because they’re iconic shapes

Next time!

Thanks for the feedback - we’ll take that on board.

GT 40, Cobra, a fair few of them yes

There really was an eclectic mix of cars in the car park.

We need more people to come to these shows and join the banter. You’ve not just got a car, there’s a community of like minded individuals who want to speak about their hobby and we need more people there. Hopefully bigger numbers at Newark.

I’d like to see them - I have a bit of a soft spot for them like the rest of the 40/50 yr olds 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It’s difficult at the moment but we are building a car which will have a COC and will be compliant in Europe…. It’s a 2.0 engine and will be available mid 2024, factory build only

It is a 7 silhouette?

We’re at Newark show next weekend so it’s our opportunity to do what you e asked

We’ve taken your comments on board for the Newark Kit Car Show… How did we do? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5vQ26b33d2Y.html

We don’t tend to see this marque of vehicle anymore, but sounds like you’ve had quite a journey. People tend to gravitate to the cobra or GT40 iconic cars. We have a D type jag replica in the wings… look on our website for the Phoenix. Neil

@@MKSportscarsofficial Thanks anyway. It's ashame they aren't displayed much at kit car shows, no idea why that is, maybe due to there being not many owners and kits made. I know they used to be shown at Stoneleigh together with the Challenger. The Cobra replica's seem to be the main attraction and appeal, must be hundreds of replica Cobra's. I've never heard of that particular D Type kit before, though I know about the Realm D-Type and Proteus (which are very expensive), I do believe the Cheshire Sportscars in Flint once made a D-Type kit car (the name of it escapes me) but I think they didn't make many of them. Interesting to see Morgan kit cars in that video, I know there were kit cars made of them.

AFAIK Westfield have this project on hold - I’ve not seen anything In Magazine or publications about it. Give them an email, prob worth a try. We powder coat our chassis 👍🏻

@@MKSportscarsofficial .. Many thanks !

Oh that’s a shame. These are peoples pride and joy - you know that right?

Thank you - make sure to tune in as we have another show in 2 weeks time.

@@MKSportscarsofficial Great! More bits and bobs to delight the senses. What will I see, and could it possibly spark memory? The anticipation will be killing me, til then. TTFN.

@@MKSportscarsofficial I'd like to cheer you Brits spirits up. When it rains, instead of saying it's pissing down, say the sky is crying tears. What you say IS the reality you feel.

@@markjaycox8811 - who knows, you’ll just need to tune in and see what we can do

@@MKSportscarsofficial You know what? The people commenting here gave me a vision I never had before. I was thinking about asking you about the Saab Sonnet, if that was considered a kit car, and being 70, and not wanting to ever try to get into a Sonnet, I thought about man sizing a pedal car, short, tall, easy to get in and out, and powered by a V-Twin in the back seat. You got my juices flowing alright- great crowd great crowd- signed rodney dangerfield

What’s one of those?

We can deliver a kit anywhere on the planet 🌎

I have details of a GCS Hawke part built that was actually for sale in Sydney 3 months ago.

Absolutely yes! Drop us an email mail@mksportscars.com and we can discuss

Fair point, I’ll try and see if I can turn this on?

Only meeeee

Investigation needed your end. I’m sure it’s possible….. somehow. Let me know what you find. Neil

Same in France. 😢

Yes it’s RWD - the engine is from a Honda CIVIC Type R and the transmission is a Mazda MX-5 / Miata mk2 using an adapter plate and extended flywheel. 230bhp out the box. We are working with a company developing some cams to take it to about 280bhp. It’s a fast car!

Sorry, that’s the Essex accent

They had stopped for a pitstop when we went outside

Yes indeed, they’re hand built cars in your garage now from a manufacturer with a boom on how to assemble it.

@@MKSportscarsofficial I wish those Cobra replicas were gassers or even had the Mooneyes treatment.

What do you mean gassers and mooneyes?

We’ve just been to the Newark show. How did we do? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5vQ26b33d2Y.html

😂

I think they were next to Lambo’s. It’s a shame we missed the beach buggies though

lol - that’s what we were saying, but it’s our Essex accent…. Sorry 😢

@@MKSportscarsofficial Hang on...I live in Ingatestone, Essex. Must come and visit MK one day...if you will forgive me????

@@dickieb2233 goodness, you’re only round the corner (I used to live in Shenfield). Make sure you come to our next open day on 13th July. Check out our Facebook events too, we’re at Snetterton later in the year.

@@MKSportscarsofficial Thanks, I shall do if I am in the area. Weather permitting, I shall bring my Brooke.

Did you watch our Newark video? Like this? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5vQ26b33d2Y.htmlsi=bWgDvd-k_H6X5rmQ

This is what we make so figured our audience would prefer to see these types of cars. Evidently not, so we’ll do better at Newark.

Sorry, we’ll take these comments on board and hopefully do better next time.

Ouch 🤕
