Depends if you fancy a little nitrous.

LuckyB had either 250 or more from his, and i'm sure after he sold it, the new owner fitted a nitrous kit which took it well over 300.

I think my cousin probably still has a DTM Opel 2.6 V6 with over 400bhp for sale if anyone is interested
It'll be a fair bit cheaper than £10k
