    I've got a Mk2 C1 as a daily, so tempted to turn it into a track car, but it's just so cheap to run, and I don't want two of the things! Plus the racing and parts are all based around the mk1

      Great daily’s aren’t they! The kit can also be used on the mk2s now, the regulations allow to run both mk1s and mk2s together. The floor is identical between both so the cage fits at the same points. Just the body panels which are different 😀
