Shite kit car

[bigstraight6]

I’m lucky enough to have a like minded petrol head (Policeman) living a few doors away, he took me out in his recent purchase earlier, not sure what it is but the Alfa boxer engine on big Webber carbs sounded wonderful!..,,,

A Minari, I think.

Minari Roadsport - a fibreglass monocoque with Alfasud (or Alfa 33) running gear.

Like most kit cars, they are amazing on paper and frankly disappointing in practice.

[yes oui si]

Not seen a set of Momo I.D.E.A.s in aaaages.

How do you get at the engine?

[somewhatfoolish]

It will be a flip front presumably?

Look at the height of the door at 50 seconds in 😳 Getting in is like breaking into your own house when you’ve lost your key and there’s a fanlight window open.

Yep, it’s certainly got a kit car feel with dodgy panel gaps and odd looking interior fixtures but it does go and Sounds amazing.

Much, much worse when parked in a single garage, and the roof is on... Ask me how I know !

I’m sure I gave the neighbours a right laugh getting my 57 year old lard ass frame in and out of the car.

I'm 14 year younger than you with no excess meat. Yet getting in and out of the missus Z4 never mind me dads Spit has been providing cheer to many for a while now 🤣

Hence why I would never buy a supercar. Too old, too fat, too stiff, and too poor!😂
