Trevor - we don't really lack for good Cobras in the UK. If you think long and hard about it, the Crendon is already so similar to a 'glass Kirkham that the difference is not worth shouting about.
Taking the usual $1 = £1 conversion for all things automotive once imported and tax paid, and accepting the fact that only the first 10 Kirkhams in a box will be sold at the current price, I don't see this offering, even if it became available in RHD, upsetting the UK market in quite the same way that it has the potential to do in the US.
Of course, no 289 option from Crendon, so I guess your Caterham 7 is safe for a while yet................

Shame we did not get to meet up at Stoneleigh.
