Worth every penny, that spares list is immense, the second engine in parts is probably worth as much as the car.
The gearbox is probably getting on for the same sort of cash with the 27 spare gears too....

This is a different kjnd of car though, this is for someone who is looking for a proper track car, or something to race in some sort of saloon car series.
An E46 M3 would be destroyed by this in the same situation.
As a useable car on the other hand, there's no contest.

The gears, LSD and magnesium wheels will all be quite expensive from the parts, and then you have the car itself, so that is £30k that would be well spent if you wanted a lightning quick track car!

when was the last time he did because thats never been in the btcc..... i didnt say it wasnt worth 30k, in my opinion its not cool enough to warrent a 30k price tag, due to the fact ive never been near a track lol

Theres a £6k+ gearbox in there
£4k+ worth of brakes
290bhp Swindon Engine? Say hello to £15k+
Air jack system
And the fact it was built by a PROPER racing team, so will have about 200+ hours in the build of the car. On average a Super-tourer cost about £250,00+ to build.
So in fact thats a bloody bargin that car. Its not been in the BTCC, but it has done the SATCC and ATCC, but meh that means nothing really.........
