the MR2 Kits are usually about £5k + the MR2 Doner (the one I posted the pic of is a fair bit more, mind)

Did they ever build that?? or just kept it as a concept? in the BMW- Rover era Rover wasn't allowed to build any real comptetition to BMW was it :roll:
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?"
She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Many year ago when I was trying to study photograghy I did a photo-journalism assignment and went to Donnington and Oulton Park and cover the Touring car championships. It was in its very first years and access was completly unrestricted :thumbright:

You could get access to the pit lane, scrutineers area etc - especially at Oulton Park. I've got a great shot of a F3 car's wing mirror just as the driver (who was sat in his car) looked into his mirror to see what I was doing leaning against his rear wheel.

I went a couple of years later to Donnington and they'd put 20 foot catch fencing all the way round as the year earlier a car had lost a wheel and it had gone into the crowd :shock: - spoilt it from a photography point of view but safety should come first :roll:
