Britain’s vibrant and varied kit car industry will be celebrated at Brands Hatch later this month with the return of Total Kit Car Live to the north Kent circuit.

The diversity of British kit car manufacturing will be displayed on November 15 with different brands exhibiting wildly contrasting concepts.

These vary from Fury Sports Cars and Gardner Douglas Sports Cars, built in the style of classically modelled roadsters, to XMoor Cars’ Ford-EcoBoost-powered sportscar.

The list of 28 manufacturers already confirmed to attend will also include bike-powered Busa Mini constructed by Mintro Padmore Garage, Bertini with their stylish take on the BMW Z3, and the iconic Westfield Sports Cars.

Displays from kit car clubs will include the Cobra Replica club, who will be bringing a large number of cars.

Spectators will be able to enjoy the sights and sounds of these great machines as their performance capabilities are tested out on track.

Passenger laps will be available, allowing visitors to the event to experience the thrills of the Indy circuit in a custom-built vehicle and hopefully be sufficiently encouraged to buy or build one themselves.

Kit car clubs across the country are invited to take part by emailing steve@tkcmag.com

Spectators will also be able to book Rally SuperRides in a competition-spec rally car, just £25 for three laps around the Brands Hatch rally stage, available from Hailwoods restaurant.
