One of the people I gig row (veterans smile ) turned up in one of these.

http://www.marlinsportscars.co.uk/forsale/

A factory built one. Very nice to, interesting feature is the windscreen surround is the roll bar, chunky but not too ugly.

He has had it a few years and toured France in it.

I asked him if he thought about Morgans he said they were too expensive for what they were.!!!! but loves them.

nice looking car that sounded great but not nice enough to deflect me from my aim of morgan ownership

nice to see another UK company producing cars and kits.

I used to be a fairly regular attender at UK Kit Car shows. It's a real curate's egg thing but I'm always amazed at the sheer number of them there are. This might be of interest:

I saw one parked up today in a shopping centre car park. It was a older build and looking a bit tatty. Even if it were newer I agree with the earlier comments - not as pretty as a Morgan, and, having now owned a Morgan, I couldn't live with it.

Don't think so John,
They started off in Plymouth and, last I heard were based in Crediton in Devon

I have reason to know- I mate of mine had a donor so we went down to have a look at the kits

My fellow gig rower said Crediton. He also indicated hat his factory build one from a number of years ago was one used at a show by the factory and he reckoned the build was a bit more careful. As I said earlier not to my taste but could to know that a company like that is still in business.
