In 1896 the Englishman Thomas Hyler White developed a design for a car that could be assembled at home and technical designs were published in a magazine called The English Mechanic.

In 1962 Lotus produced the Lotus Elan which could also be bought as a Kit of parts, ie, kitcar. So Self build or self assembley or kit cars are in the British psyche !!

The Vincent MPH brings the British passion for kit cars together with a classic British sports car – the Riley MPH.
