If that figure of £60k is accurate of what it's all worth I'd be pretty pissed off selling it for £16k

Whats the fastest VXR in the uk then? He proberly means highest bhp in the uk anyway which means more to some people....
Even if the body work is a bit damaged what you get for that price is still really good...thats if the engine lasts 
Those piks were taken at the powerflow garage in Telford, he did a video for BK wheels of him wheelspinning outside too

Would any of you honestly buy that car? 420bhp tuned to an inch of it's life and probably driven to an inch of it's life.

The way the bonnet vents are positioned it should get a direct flow of cold air to the induction system.

Who built it? It may well last but I'm not sure I'd buy someone elses input.
Would you buy your car not knowing what was involved in the build?
