Hi, My name is Dave Andrews, I am 48 years old
and a Kit Car Enthusiast. I am the owner of a Robin Hood Sierra 7, this
is not dissimilar to a Caterham/Lotus 7 or Westfield, but it uses a Ford Sierra as a donor
vehicle. I built the car myself five years ago over a period of six months or so. It is of
stainless steel monocoque construction with green GRP. As all kit car owners know, it will
never be finished, I am continually modifying and upgrading it. So far it has cost £9000
and around 600 hours toil. I am the Local secretary of the Robin Hood Owners Club and
Register for the Beds and Bucks Area and a member of the excellent Sevens internet
interest group.
A Robin Hood can be put on the road for a fairly modest sum, as
little as £3000, with the average build cost being around £4000. Mine has cost a little
more than this as it has a naturally aspirated Cosworth YB engine, C/R BGH gearbox,
Cosworth rear end and numerous other mods. It produces around 240 BHP.
I used to work in the Computer industry doing software R&D,
but am now modifying and building engines for a living, press here for the DVAPower website
Below is a picture of my car with my wife at the wheel, note the engine is not running - phew! The car has changed a little since this shot was taken.
I have written a number of articles on various subjects which may be some help to people tuning engines or setting up cars, some of these are:-
There is also some other stuff which may be of interest to hoodies
