I think my favourite is the Unipower GT, only ever seen this one and that was at Burford historic specials show, it was too new to be part of the show, only pre 60's car are allowed.

Maybe not a kit but the Broadspeeds are my favourite Mini based derivative.  Ogles are cool too.  The rest just look badly designed and very 'backyard' in design to me.

Each to there own etc, but I always thought the deep sanderson 301 was a bit of a looker as well, and non too shabby track wise either

That's dodgy ground calling the Unipower a 'kit'

I wanted a GTM Coupe too, but ended up with a more practical Midas. This takes me back.

I always liked the Scamp and there was the Frogeye Sprite replica based on Mini / Metro parts.

Broadspeed GT, if you could call it a kit.

 

Or a Marcos.

Well its in the Classic kit car book by Peter Filby, which states that only 75 were made, it was designed by BMC works driver Andrew Hedges & Tim Powell, I've always assumed it was a kit, right back in the 60's.

Sorry if I've got it wrong
