What is a kit car?

A kit car is a vehicle that is assembled by the owner or a manufacturer from a set of components or parts. These parts arrive in a kit form, hence the name "kit car." These cars can be customized to the owner's specifications and can be built with a variety of different engines, transmissions, and other components. Kit cars are generally not mass-produced and are often designed to resemble other cars or have unique designs. Some of the popular kit cars include the AC Cobra, Lotus Seven, and Caterham Seven. Kit cars are sold in many countries around the world and can be used for road or track use. Many kit cars are built for recreational use and are often built to be lightweight and fast. However, the process of building a kit car can be time-consuming and requires a certain level of mechanical expertise.
