Welcome

THIS MONTH 6 NEWS

It’s absolutely 100 per cent free, gratuit, frei, libero, libre. Yup, to claim your 2010 Complete Kit Car Calendar will cost you nothing. Most importantly, this isn’t some cheapie throwaway we’ve inserted into the magazine that’s little bigger than a postage stamp, but instead a proper foldout 297mm by 420mm calendar printed on quality art paper. It features some of our best photography and, vitally, includes many of the important show dates so that you’ll never miss a kit car event that’s coming up. If you’ve not already done so, head to the CKC website (www.completekitcar.co.uk) and fill in the online claim form (using the unique reference number you’ll find in this issue on page 31)... and we’ll do the rest. We’ve had a tremendous response to our previous giveaways over the last few months, with many of you now enjoying your limited edition CKC mugs and having viewed the free DVD we gave away with our September issue. If you missed getting hold of a mug, then you can now buy one from our online shop. They’re priced at just £5 and could be a perfect stocking filler this Christmas! If fact, there are lots of new exclusive CKC products you’ll find at the CKC Shop, including caps, rugby tops and much more. Head for www.completekitcar.co.uk and you’ll find loads of great Christmas ideas. I mentioned the new 2010 CKC Guide in my column last month, but I can’t resist doing so again here. Packaged as The CKC Survival Pack, the Guide comes with a free poster, four exclusive CKC postcards and contained within a card folder. While you can order a Survival Pack from us, you’ll also find it exclusively at all WHSmith stores in the run-up to Christmas. That said, you’ll also be able to pick up the Guide on its own at a number of specially selected independent newsagents (but without the Survival Pack goodies). Of course, at the foundation of the Survival Pack is the Guide itself and, as the title suggests, it’s there to guide you into the amazing world of kit cars. As such, you’ll find dedicated guide sections on IVA, registration, insurance, the club scene and useful parts and services. But most importantly, you’ll also find full-page entries on many of the industry’s top manufacturers, as well as contact details for all the other companies we can think of. As such, it’s a remarkably comprehensive reference for anyone wanting to research a future purchase. Everyone here is very proud of the Survival Pack. We think it’s one of the best products we’ve produced, and I hope you do too. You can order the Survival Pack by phoning our shop hotline on 01903 236268 or by placing an order via our website. No room for me to tell you about the great features in this issue, but obviously you’ve got it in your hands right now! Enjoy our Jaguar replica group test, Wilkins’ drive of the madcap Vindicator F4 and of course, all the great technical features within the CKC Workshop. Our build of a EDF430 replica will return next month.

COMPANY FOCUS

WHAT IS GOING on with all the products originally developed by Stuart Mills of MEV? The man has been a one-man kit car production line, pumping out new designs at a giddying rate of at least two or three each year. There hardly seems to be a show go by without another MEV new model launch... and that’s just the way we like it. We need people like this to keep the industry fresh. But it’s also becoming apparent that, rather like another kit car designer extraordinaire, Jeremy Phillips of Sylva Autokits, Stuart isn’t keen to hold onto his children much beyond pre-school age. As we go to press (and unless he’s not launched another model in the intervening week or so) MEV now currently markets just the Sonic7 and Stuart’s latest derivative, the Missile. It means his first mass produced kit car offering, the Rocket, and his subsequent Atomic single seater, have moved onto new ownership, where development of the Atomic’s threewheeler cousin, the tR1ke, is currently coming to the end of its development phase. All are now with Road Track Race... or is that Evil Twin or... let’s start at the beginning! Paul Holmes launched Smarts R Us in 2001, with his good friend Liam Wilkinson. Paul had spent the previous 25 years as a musician in a band called Cut. The group was successful in Europe (including a number one), but struggled with chart success in the UK. While the almost constant touring had been fun, Paul was looking for a more settled future, and when he saw a highly modified Smart while in Europe, he thought there must be a market for the same thing in the UK. Smarts R Us went from strength to strength, both in second-hand sales, but also with the intended tuning and modifying. In 2004 there was a logical progression when Paul and Liam teamed

Road Track Race

up with German designer, Bernd Michalak with his Smart based Michalak C7. Kit cars weren’t as alien to the duo as you might have thought, with Liam always into kits having dabbled as a manufacturer in the early ’90s with a Lotus Elan inspired car called the Gemini Sprint Elysse. With the Michalak, all the hard work had been done and the quality of the product was beyond reproach, but a Smart based kit car turned out to be a tough sell in the UK, despite rave reviews from all the relevant press. So it wasn’t until 2007 when things began to really ramp up in terms of the company’s kit car involvement. Visiting a kit car show, Paul got talking to MEV’s Stuart Mills, who was just in the process of launching his Rocket. Stuart reckoned the car would accommodate almost any engine and suspension package, so Paul took him at his word and, later that year, dropped off a Smart at his Nottinghamshire base with the challenge to fit the Smart underpinnings into a Rocket. With small styling tweaks and a turnkey only sales policy, the resulting Zonta debuted at the MPH show later that year. It created a lot of interest, but yet again it was the meagre performance of the Smart drivetrain that limited sales. Having struck up a good rapport with MEV, by the end of 2008 Stuart let on that he was thinking of selling the Rocket (and subsequent Atomic project) so that he could concentrate on the new Sonic7 and continue to develop other new products. For Paul the timing could not have been better, with the second-hand Smart side of the business seemingly plateauing out with the onset of cheap finance on new car sales from the main dealers. But taking on the Rocket was not the work of a moment. Paul and Liam wanted to do the job properly, and that meant bringing all the manufacturing processes (chassis fabrication and fibreglass

The MEV Rocket and Atomic now reside with the company that established itself as Smarts R Us, marketed its own Rocket derivative, the Zonta, under the Evil Twin banner and now offers its latest acquisitions under Road Track Race... while retaining the MEV name.

DECEMBER 2009


From SS100 to E-Type, replicas of classic Jaguars have always been popular. We’ve gathered five of the best we could find. THE IDEA IS simple. Take a modern, cheaply available Jaguar saloon, remove its mechanical package and use it to recreate one of the sporting models from the company’s illustrious past. It’s an idea that’s produced a whole host of kit form Jaguar replicas over the years – and we’ve gathered five privately owned examples of the breed. There’s the exquisite SS100 from Suffolk Sportscars. This car is so authentic it has the seal of approval from Jaguar clubs, and Suffolk supplies owners of original cars with spares. We also have two takes on the XK120 theme. The Autotune Aristocat has been with us for over 25 years now and, while it doesn’t pretend to be an exact replica, it’s clearly within the spirit of the original. Meanwhile, the Nostalgia 120 aligns itself more squarely as a close recreation of the Jaguar. We were also delighted to find a Ram D-type which is currently manufactured by Realm Engineering. However, rarity prevented us from uncovering a C-type replica – despite offerings from Realm, Suffolk and Nostalgia. The most modern replica in our line-up was the Challenger E-type. It’s no longer in production, but an active owners’ club meant it wasn’t difficult to find an exquisite example of the breed. Turn the page for our run-down of kit cats...

WITH THE USE of a unique new product, Finger Spanners from HEXHOLD Limited, no longer will you have difficulty in locating a nut or bolt in areas of restricted access. The Metric or AF Finger Spanners, of which there are 5 in each set, are manufactured from CS70 grade Spring Steel and hardened, tempered and finished with a bright zinc plate. The Metric set contains sizes 5.5, 7, 8, 10, 13mm; and the fractional AF set houses sizes 7/16, 3/8, 11/32, 5/16, 1/4 inch. AS QUALITY IS an important factor for such a tool the product has undergone rigorous testing; a massive 200,000 insertion cycles are achieved before any signs of failure are visible. To put that in context, the spanner can be used five times a day and still last 109 years! THE SPANNER RANGE are housed in a rugged box made from Polycarbonate and ABS materials keeping the tools safe in the toughest of environments.

When supplying an engine it has to meet the standard we'd chose to fit to our own race bikes and cars. All of our engines are under 7,000 miles, the majority are closer to 4,000. When we receive an engine it is fully tested to make sure it runs as it should. We can supply them with sump baffles, as a bare engine or a complete kit. We specialise in supplying Hayabusa Engines and have a good working relationship with holeshot racing and many other engine builders. We courier the engine using TNT and can arrange delivery to any address of your choice.

Tel/Fax : +44 (0) 1386 556868 Email: make.ends.meet@btconnect.com

We offer a realistic warranty with all of our engines.

We take pride in the quality of the kits we provide .... 84 www.completekitcar.co.uk
