Pulled this out of a barn today, where it has been sat for many years. Believe it is a Banham Sprint kit car, based on a Mini. Anybody else have one?

I had to buy it. The deal was I either buy nothing or buy both the Mini and the kitcar! So this one is up for sale now for someone else to enjoy and I've now got another Mini! And there was me thinking I would never have one again...

I built a Banham a few years back but that was based on a Metro. Great fun little cars.

The panels seem to fit better on that than they do on a proper bugeye!...

I'd love one, such character. Probably a K based one though

Thats the one, great little motor, They were built a few years after the type above but same company I believe. Quality was pretty good and looking at this one on here that looks really nicely built as well. Great project for someone.

It is a froggy. The same company has done other ones as well - like the Metro based one I did which as someone has said was a bit like a Audi TT.
