Do you guys have Kit cars over there?

I've always fancied building a Cobra rep, like this:

One of my neighbours has a friend with a Replica Diablo.

It looks amazing, but unfortunately they've put a crappy engine in it, it sounds pathetic. I have a feeling it's just a 2litre engine from a Mk2 MR2 non turbo.

The good thing about a Cobra type kit is it's much easier to fit a proper engine, by which I mean a modern V8.

The other popular style kit over here is the Caterham/Westfield. I nearly bought one like this:

Didn't Shelby sued every kit car maker recently and had them stop all manufacturing?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found these threads to prove me wrong.
