Almost £20K??? Nice car but i doubt he will get that at all. i would rarther put a deposit on a house than buy that.
you could get an 8P S3 for that
I would too but this car has been proven to be faster than the new V10 BMW, which has been proven quicker than a lambo gallardo! So £20k for a supercar killer isn't bad at all. Be a right pig when something goes wrong!
It would be very good funyou can't deny it would be nice to have nearly 500bhp under the hood of your S.
yes you could get this and that,you are missing the point its a one off for someone to own something quite special
It's very unique.
I am sure for the cost an S3 with a proper BT would be as fast and you would have money in your pocket.
Kudos for the project as a technical exercise, but an awful lot of money spent....
Ok lads,
I didnt think the car would end up on every forum!
Did you put the engine yourself?
I disagree, a nice tidy S3 is around 6K now, you can get an awful lot of Turbo for £19k. I have also seen a BT build that cost not much more than £3k that generates 390BHP, so add the price of the car and be generous and say £10k.
so 80BHP for £15k isnt so much of a bargain unless you do the work yourself
Could add an awful lot of turbo / tuning for £15k.
Like i said, kudos for giving it a go/paying for it etc. One off, but a lot of cash
