THE TIGER

This is the kit-car constructed by myself and friend Chris last year. It’s a Tiger Cat E1 and was put on the road on 2nd March 2000. Total cost to date is around £6000 (Thank-you Student Loans Company!). Click on pics to enlarge.

The car may be up for sale before long – contact me if you’d like to make an offer.

THE SHED

The Tiger is not the only car owned my Chris and myself, Also in service is the legendary SHED! This 17-year-old Peugeot 205 Diesel is still almost fully functional, and oozes Gaellic ‘charm’ with its swamp green and rust-brown exterior, plus a stunning beige formica dash and matching seats. You have to see it to appreciate it – picture hopefully on the way. It won’t win any traffic-light grand prix, but 55mpg is very welcome on a tight student budget. It also only cost us 250 quid, so waddaya expect?
