Car Dealers Directory In the market for a pre-owned kit car but want the confidence that comes with buying from a dealer? Here's where you’ll find one near you.
IF YOU WANT the fun of owning a kit car, don’t fancy the task of building it yourself and can’t afford a brand new turnkey offering from the factory, then scouring the second-hand kit car market is a great place to start. Even if you like the idea of building a car at home, but lack the confidence, then owning a pre-built car can be a great way of seeing whether a build might be something you can tackle in the future. There are a number of kit car dealerships scattered around the UK, always with a good cross section of cars you can buy. You may still have to travel a reasonable distance for the right car, but our handy directory is a great place to start your kit car adventure.
