Kit Cars built by Mark Evans
Mark Evans once a vet, appeared on our TV’s with great delight to many Kit Car enthusiasts in the UK in 1999. He battled through many types of vehicle, including many kit cars along the way. These included episodes called:
- “An MG Is Born” when he built a 1973 MGB Roadster
- “A Racing Car Is Born”
- “A Car Is Born” turned into the Restoration of a 1965 E Type Jaguar
- “A Car Is Reborn” where a very nice Replica AC Cobra 427 was born
These programs were screened on Discovery to over 70 countries, which we’re guessing started a lot of people off on the kit car building road.
Once people have built kit cars what needs to be done to make it all legal?
Kit car insurance is the first port of call in our eyes. You build your dream kit car and for what ever reason it goes up in smoke, some low life pinches it, parked on your drive and someone reverses into it. Not worth the risk to not have insurance in place and beating yourself up about once the accident has happened.
Kit car insurance needs to be a special policy for the individual vehicle and type of car. A replica kit car insurance policy will cover your use for specialist parts, limited mileage,and an agreed value cover. Kit car models can include MGB Roadster, AC Cobra, 130 Spyder, Alfa GP Single Seater, MR3 SS Supersport, Ginetta and Sidewinder.
Carry on building, enjoy but remember your Kit Car insurance!
