Destroying the image of a real Cobra - Oh come on, what utter bullcrap!!!

Pray tell me how can the image of an original be destroyed by a kit car.

The original is as it is - an original. A kit car is an individual made vehicle made from parts what the builder decides he wants (and that he can afford).

Do we drive an AC Cobra - no, do we drive a Ford Cobra - no, we drive a kit car that looks like a Cobra. If I wanted my Cobra to be as an original I would buy an Original. At 10% of the cost I drive a car that to the majority is a Cobra.

You need to remember that away from the Cobra Clubs the majority simply view the car as "bloody hell that looks good!!!!)

I've seen Cobra (Kit Cars) in the UK that run 2L Ford Pinto Engines. Surely, by your way of thinking using this engine also destroys the image of the real Cobra as its a long way from being a V8 even though its a Ford.

I for one (who does have a Ford V8 in mine) couldn't give a damn what engine goes under the bonnet (hood).

Enjoy your car for what it is - a KIT CAR.
