On the subject of kitcars, someone where I work has a Veranti.
Toyota MR2 underneath, and very nice body on top.

They're an ideal car to convert as everything bolts off, even the rear quarter panels.

I think kit cars are great, but more from a build your own Lotus-7 type or hotrod way. This kind of stuff doesnt appeal to me.

If anyone is thinking of doing an MR2 kit, there's a cheap doner car available here no. 16 on the salvage list, you'll need airbags though.....
