Thanks for all the advice everyone has given it is all much appreciated.

my S7 Zetec passes it mot today.

i was going to sell it as soon as it was mot and buy a B2 or a Tiger Cat E1.  Mainly to get a bit more cockpit room?
Any advice on what I should do.........

Yes, buy this if you want more cockpit space.

I did see this a bit above m price budget....

OK no problem, thought it was worth mentioning.

Hi Richy,

Been thinking about the car you mentioned on ebay is it worth £6,295?  and if you were going to put an offer in what would it be?

[richyb66]

I'm probably not the best person to ask because Gaz is a close friend. It's a very rare car so price wise there's nothing to directly compare it to. 

In terms of the spec, it's up there with the better Zetec powered cars as it's got  Jenveys and Emerald ECU. Chassis wise, it's closer to a Zero with fully independant wishbone suspension and the chassis itself is a lighter stronger version of the 2B so it drives very nicely. 

I spent probably 100 hours making the hood and roof (build thread on here), which is totally unique and would have cost a fortune to have custom made. 

I'm not going to advise on haggling other than to say that he's already had several silly offers on Ebay. Gaz thinks he's priced it sell as it is and I don't think it'll be long before he gets what he's asking.

Great reply.  I was struggling as you said there is nothing to compare it too....

how much bigger/ wider is it to my S7 and the b2?  

[richyb66]

Not sure about the size of an S7, I would imagine it's much closer to a 2B in size. I have a 2B and it feels a lot more spacious in the cabin that that but I've not measured it to compare the two.

Physical exterior dimensions are similar, but sitting in a 2b and/or Gaz's The Hood, is night and day difference.  Far more space in the 2b/The hood
