Still struggling on the roll cage front .. Spoke to Richard at Banks , who referred me to Roll Centre UK ... two weeks of calls and emails have so far failed to get a response from them so it seems that i may have to go my own route with it .  I have some pics of the Banks/Roll Centre cage , but not great ones and none of it fitted in a car . If anyone has some decent pictures/ advice  etc can you share with me it would be appreciated .  I have round somewhere with the tooling to create the bends .. and know a decent coded welder that can probably stick it all together for me.

Have you seen the "competition manual" published by Jensen Motors in the States many years ago?

Been there! 
I decided in the end to buy an FIA approved cage off safety devices, but it's only a rear roll bar.  But it's approved! The plan is then to get a full cage added. Maybe worth have a chat.

Hi BDA .. thanks. useful document and helps with the outline design

Hi Buzzer .. so you have suffered the no communications issue at Roll Centre too then ? .    How much are SD charging for there rear hoop ?.. its probably not a bad basis to build the rest from as all the other sections will i think just need bends on a single plane , where as the rear hoop needs bends in two planes to kick it  forward along the bulkhead lines.  have found a couple of places that can supply the CDS , and that will bend it to shape if a diagram provided.   Definitely worth a chat and see if we cant work a better deal for two on the made to measure stuff ?

I have a Lotus Europa roll cage in Québec that could be available. Just have to take it off the car.

Hi Daniel .. thanks for the reply .. I have literally just placed an order for a new one over here . Shame on me for not checking the forum again before i did .   Looks like maybe it can help Blitzen out though.
