1	It's great fun. Fun to build, and fun to drive
2	It develops your skills, and your self confidence.

4	It makes financial sense. Most properly built clubman cars are worth more than the cost of building them.
5	It develops you driving skills, through involvement in track days, rallies etc.
6	It develops family ties through the involvement of partners or family members in the build , and in club events.
7	It is an active interest that gets you away from the TV or pub for a while.
8	It promotes recycling, as most kit cars use second-hand and reconditioned parts.

10 Good Reasons Reviewed after 3 years
1	It's certainly fun to drive. More than I hoped for. The build process was a lot less fun than I first believed. It was challenging, frustrating boring, and sometimes fun. I'm glad it's over, and I don't think I'd do it again soon.
2	Absolutely
3	Hopefully, this will be more true in the coming months.
4	Not true. If you have mechanical skills or can access them easily, you can build one of these cars for less than $25000, which is about the market value.
5	Still waiting for this, but have no reason to doubt it.
6	Very true. I was hardly speaking to my co-builder son when we started this. Now we are very close. Highly recommended. Also, my wife and her friends are very passionate about the project, and very supportive.
7	Yup
8	Also true
9	Haven't got the figures, but if you drive it like I do, it's not gonna happen. But who cares!
10	I never realised until now how much hard work and heartache is required, but it's been worth it!
