Interesting colour.
(trying to follow Thumper's mother's words: If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all. Which is a double negative but you get my drift)
Personally, i think it is horrible but each to their own.
I also noticed this one...

Again, i really dont like it but it looks like good quality work and has had a lot of money thrown at it at some point.
prefer the top one it just looks so much more refined.
I much prefer the colour of the second one, in fact I love the colour of the second one. I am such a girl, just going for colour.
However the issue for me would be the fact it has supercharger decals and is not a supercharger. The engine lids are not raised and he clearly states it however the advert says " but modeled brilliantly to look like one."
The only visible exterior differences between an N/A and a SC are different rear lights and raised engine lids. They do not have those body kits on them.
I do really dislike someone having stickers on a car to imply it is a different car.
Here is the original article about the conversion

This made me smile
Quote Paul Woods
" I for one applaud any modification that makes our cars special (although fitting a 2ltr turbo may be a tad too far) and this kit certainly does that."
laughable quote really when you consider that paul's built the MRX :eek:
paul think you need to revisit this page and make some minor alterations to the text in that amazingly detailed "how to" guide :)
Snoball, I was taught to not to criticize other peoples work, When your own isn't so good.
Bill.
I didn't read that as a criticism ?????

that's all hope that paul isn't offended by what i've written..........

There is a KARMELEON for sale on eBay item 291444699472 and the bidding starts at £1499.
Why would the engine light come on if the exhaust is blowing?
It wouldn't, there are no sensors connected to the exhaust on a Mk1.
I think those cars are horrible!
I'd rather drive a Lada or a Yugo
It's an acquired taste that's for sure, has anybody in the club got one?
I'm not going to swap mine for a karmeleon any time soon but I think it's ok. Looks a bit like an Elan. I would like to have a good look around it if I saw one at a show or on a run.
I wonder if they can be retrofitted?

Another one!!
Always liked these, but for some strange reason others who have built them don't like them.
Would be interesting to add one to my growing collection of mk1
As if by magic another one has just popped on eBay.
