| I have built a V8 locost which
has passed SVA. I intend to move permanently to France in about 2
years time. Would I be able to take it to France and register it there?
I know the French bureaucracy is pretty formidable. Hope you can help
me. thanks Peter Murray peter.murray99@tiscali.co.uk 20060129 |

LINCOLNSHIRE GROUP
ANNOUNCEMENT.
Having set this group up, the first "Locost Car Club Local Group" Seven years ago to help & encourage new builders in the area I have decided that as from the end of December 2005 I will be standing down as group coordinator. SEVEN years in office seems an appropriate number of years given the type of car the Locost is to serve the group. I still intend to go to the meetings etc, but for various reasons I am finding it more difficult to commit myself to being at the meeting venue without fail each month at a set time. I will more than likely still be there but not Quite as early & for not as long as in the past. If anyone out there is willing to carry on as group coordinator please contact me. Meanwhile may I take this opportunity to thank every one I have been involved with over the years with LOCOST, I have had some tremendous fun and met some smashing people along the way. LONG LIVE THE LOCOST! Derek Manders |

Toyota Corolla donor
Amadeu Pires writes from Portugal to say that he is building a Locost from the normal plans but with the engine / drivetrain from a 1978 Toyota Corolla. He has a fairly full photographic record of the build if you are interested - look at http://www.viseudesign.com/Sevenesque.htm 14/04/05 |
