A turbo would ruin it, you can't go much faster as it is!

Did it really cost £30K?
I see that it has stack dash and a few others but i guess you could shave a fair amount off.
I suppose a donor M3 couple cost a bit.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:

No it didn't cost £30Kk If I had that cash i'd build a gt70.
I had about £3.5k's worth of electronics on the car, you could build a high spec one for £13k otr or a 'basic' one for £9k otr.
Which when you add up what it costs to build a more normal 7 makes it a bit of a bargain.
You can buy a good donor for £2.5k or less, sell off all the stuff you don't need/use and end up with a 321bhp donor package for about £1k. It
needs no mapping and all standard diagnostics work too.

They are good, it will keep up with a 911 GT3 RS (at least, mine did until it spun a shell  ). I think mine cost more to build than Franky's
(and isn't as high a spec) but some of that is down to Franky getting some very good Ebay bargains (and me maybe over-paying for donor parts at
the beginning when I was new to the whole kit-car thing). Also I'm on engine #3 which doesn't help. But yeah, really enjoyable end result.

Why does he want shot already?!?!
It's a good car from what I've seen but he must be strapped for cash or something or it wouldn't be for sale so soon.
Offer him a cheeky price and see how it goes.

Maybe thats why wants £17,500 to pay for the fines I offered £13,500 and came back with £17,500 just have to save up for a Atom or rob the bank
again!!
