The operative bit here is "been on the road". This means that you are, I am sorry to say, No longer a virgin, unlike me.

So we have a grand total of 55 cars built/building on the poll. No I am sure that there are MORE than that about.

I am a little surprised by the total as I would have expected more. When I bought my Luego kit there were approximately 600 Robin Hood's being sold a year so 70 in total is low. I guess that lots of builders don't use this forum but even still for such a high profile company I just thought it would have been more like one a week or more. I'm not surprised kit car manufacturers struggle to stay in business with such low sales. Still, my Velocity is a fantastic kit and I am really looking forward to driving it.

Ok 73 and still climbing (slowly). I guess that there will be quite a few that once they have bought & built their cars they might drop of the list because they have now been there and done it. If this is true then we and they have lost a valuable resource and some good friends. Then there will be a few that have bought but are not web connected (which is sad). The one thing that is true is that those that have responded are committed to luego and this site and we are good at giving everyone encouragement and help when needed. For that I think that we all need to give each other a pat on the back and promise that we will cement this by ALL meeting at stonleigh.

You won't be able to miss us for we will all be wearing our luego t shirts.
