Zero Vs 2b

[Guest STEVE OXON]

hi guys.

having built a robin hood 2b back in 2001 and since sold on, i now considering building a zero.

questions are. how much better/worse is zero than 2b?

are the alignment issues of the 2b rear axle/gearbox sorted in the zero.

in total is the zero a better car to build .

donors.? still use sierra parts. presumably not as many as the 2b used? quick list anybody

thanks for your help

HHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

I think the two are uncomparable!!!!!!!

 

Nick has built his to an extremely high standard in under a year!!!

 

Mine is only being hampered by funds.

 

In a nutshell, go for the Zero, I started a Dax Rush (was a nightmare in comparison), Uncle built a Tiger (thinks the Zero is a doddle in comparison)

 

your money though

There's a recent topic on here somewhere called "visit to GBS" or something like that, which you'd probably find interesting reading. Opinion toward the latest batch of Zero's seems to be overwhelmingly positive.

Hi Steve,

 

I'm almost finished mine and live just off junction 25 M25, more than welcome to come and drink my tea and have a nosey while I twist your arm to buy one, lol.

Steve. I pick up my 2468 kit on the 8th December so there won't be much to look at but you would be welcome anyway. I live over in Gloucester.

Hi Steve,

Long time no see.

The Thames Valley mob have one Zero on the road and another being built in the Reading area.

Did you know that GBS have a wide body Zero that they are developing to replace the 2B it was on show at the Exeter show.

Glad to see you have got the Hoody bug again
