It took me a long while to find one of these that firstly I could afford, and secondly that was not a total basket case, as I really wanted this to be mint. It really could be classified as a new build rather than restored as it is basically all new parts. No electrics fitted at this stage, just finished the body and decals which are Marwan specials and very good quality. As always, comments most welcome ;)

2023 Edit - some better pics

Nice one Kym. This is good motivation for me to get my backside into gear and build my own SE!

Amazing. It looks really great. I would love to get the whole serie reissued. They look so good, and drives great too.

Great job on this box-art Mid! I think the white lettering on the tyre walls really makes this car stand out. All the Optima buggies were all great looking buggies - I wish modern racing buggies looked like this :-/
