Bentley Turbo R.

That's how much ours was.

You can get thousands and thousands of Smarties for £6,000....

you should be able to get a full kit from certain companys and maybe cut back on the bits that you might be able to make yourself, and a good running doner if you look around, but your better off buy an old westfield that already has a registration and slowly modify it as you go along and sell the bits that you take off!

Well each to their own opinion but £6250 for a 2004 ZX9R C2 Stuart Taylor with 12 months MOT and 10 months tax, that you haven't seen or driven in yet seems pretty reasonable to me but good luck with your search.

no the pinto engine one with the broken engine m8 they said it not worth the money u want but it look a very nice car

I bought my Indy with numerous bits as a part built kit and saved myself a good 1.5k after I sold parts on.
I've been quite frugal with how I sourced parts for the build, but it's still on target for an r1 MK Indy for £6K (ok it's been 5 years so far, but it's been fun)

The block is cracked and can be replaced for £50 - £60. You can have her for £5K and I'll throw in a compete 2.0 Blacktop Zetec engine that has all ancilleries, ECU, keys, TB's Gearbox (can be sold) or for anyone else interested. Moving house so something has to go. The full weather gear is worth over £500.
