Richard Hall of GBS, How I became a Kit Car Manufacturer.

Its now 17 years since Richard Hall started ‪@GreatBritishSportsCa‬ Great British Sportscars, and their Zero is well established as one of the market leaders is seven style cars.
Richard sat down with Trevor at the Newark Kit Car Festival to recall whilst not long out of university he took the plunge to buy the assets of RHE from the liquidators, how the Zero came about, and some of the more unusual projects they are currently involved with.

Great to see guys like Richard have the balls to get stuck in, an old saying " Do the basics well and the rest will fall into place "

What an interesting insight into Richards rise to making excellent sports cars . Hope they carry on and progress on there new models .

The more I see from GBS, the more I think they're the future.

Rivaling Caterham...... hmmm, you need to have a build guide and refine the panels that don't fit first, even on the Gen2. It's almost there but needs quite a bit more refinement and fixing.

It would be nice if they would have a distributor in the US as well. We who just started building Locost cars, we need parts, and shiping kills the deal.

[@davelassell]

I think there's a guy in California who is going to do distribution for them. The video might be here on 7spot.
