Hi all, I am now into trikes so have a look at this link if you are interested www.scottgb.freeserve.co.uk/lifan trike.htm
The Jackal Kit Car Register
and Jackdaw info
Welcome to the Jackal Register Web site, if it looks a bit low tech, that’s because the original Jackal was a low tech car , it’s a kit car initially based on the Vauxhall Viva, yes its that old.
There were only about 35 built originally, they were on sale from November 1982 to July 1987.
A further 6 were built based on the Sierra between 1988 and 2000
The Jackal Register closed on Jan 1st 2001
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jackal was in put back in production by Jackal Cars located at Herstmonceux, East Sussex, the owner there made about 6 more cars, but sold the project to Cotswold Kit cars sometime in the year of 2000
The Jackal was reported to be back in production (as of Jan 1st 2001), by Cotswold Kit Cars but it seems it did not appear on the market to date (November 2001)
This was the last version of the Jackal car seen (as sold by Jackal cars), although the Cotswold Kit Cars may change some of its appearance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jackal body now seems to have appeared on another car, I am reliably informed it is not to be called a Jackal. (June 2001)
A company called Deauville cars, is producing a car called the Canard its a 2CV based car with a converted Jackal body, albeit in a very different form to the above pictures, see the link below for more info and some good pictures.
They even offer it in an LPG version !

This Vehicle below is the Jackdaw built by the same company that built the Jackal.
