its buzz's car (or was)
might not be to peoples styling tastes now, but go back 3/4/5 years when it was getting built and it was one of the best I have seen
love the car to bits, mine was on show with it at Max Power 2002 IIRC

used to be my car,ive never ever said about costing 30k so god knows where it came from,id had that car from new in 1999 which for some people is 8 years ago.
was in total vauxhall on 03 or 04 and fast car in 05 i think.
car was built how i wanted it no body else ,never ever taken on board at to what people thought of it as it was my car and i built it.
think i was nearly one of the first members to register on this sit in 1999 when ian and daimo b were around. most mods on that car were stopped about 2 years ago when i got bored so it may not be upto standard of what people want today.
always got attention at shows etc.

30k?
Why not just go out and buy a porsche or something.
People who spend that much on cars are just stupid.

Because you don't spend £30k in one go when you modify a car.
I know a few people who have recently spent A LOT more than that on modifications on cars, or restorations, they earn enough for it not to really be a lot of money for them to spend over 3 years or so.
It's all relative.
