Heres mine completed and on the road April this year







Low mileage Busa engines are expensive then you need to dry sump them(unless you just want to go in a straight line) and that's before adding a turbo.

The costs can spiral out of control when building one of these but by god is it worth it

I have a 3,500 mile Westfield Cosworth and it's for sale on PH at the moment - very fast and awesome car but have a baby now so don't use it.

Bloody hell Steve I didn't see this first time around. Mark said you were building one but I didn't know you'd actually completed it! That looks stunning!

Thumbs up

Cheers Scott,lot of blood sweat and tears went into it I can tell you.

I have done a couple of events with Lotus on Track and its bloody quick and a bit of a handful

Stuck a video of the last one on Youtube,still some more vids to come just not had much time to sort them out.

YouTube - Megabusa with LoT at North Weald

Caveat its probably NSFW as the missus has a swearing session at me for scaring her.

Jon, should have taken that up to Blyton!

Seriously, have been considering one for a while so please give me a call when you are ready to sell it.

cheers Neil
