Is that for the Porsche Chuck?

Well I guess it might have cost 40K to buy all the kit and the car and have it fitted. But, as to wether it's WORTH 40k is another matter.

Old_Fart

I don't think it's meant to be worth £40k...but thats an estimate of what it cost to build...ie new price of STI Type R, HKS goodies, NOS, I.C.E. etc etc

Snap Great minds think alike

Old_Fart

And no, not for the Porsche...I'm thinking of selling that and buying a Ford Racing Puma now...spending the change on a makeover for the poor old 22B which has been in use as our daily driver for the past couple months and needs some pampering LOL

OMG - this is the car I saw at Thorpe Park last week on a corporate event and loadsa my colleagues were remarking on it's chavity, especially seeing the majority of custom there!!

It was driven by 1 bloke who had 3 birds with him and he was revving the nuts off it, with the music blaring!

Worth 40k? umm, no sorry, don't think so somehow. I think even a totally mint condition 22B would not fetch 40k, let alone this *******ised creation.

40k to build? if including the base car, labour, VAT, as well as parts, possibly. I'm not so sure though. I would have thought that a mind condition type R would be around 20k (I'm not totally up on prices of classics these days) and that's probably over optomistic and for a totally mint condition standard car as well. So, you have 20k left, I'm sure that you could get all the associated goodies, inc fitting, vat and painting (where needed) for a lot less than 20k. Maybe I'm in a dream world though?

Must say, that from the, albeit small, picture, it does look rather sickly, and this is coming from a bit of a tart lol

ScoobywagonGl

erm a 22b i wouldnt have thought would even get that much! they go for about £25k? ish? i know type r's are going for between £10k - £14k so doubt it would be worth anymore than that at all. you can pick up early wrx's for £3k now which is good news for me when i upgrade to a turbo

Markus

As said, totally utterly mint, and probably never driven 22b *might* fetch 40k, if at autction and a couple of petrol sniffing banshee's really wanted lol. 25 - 30 sounds about right though. So that'd leave a fair whack for parts.

I know only too well about cheap WRX's, sold the beast for a rather low amount *sniff*, must say however that I'd probably not go for an early WRX, not unless it's been insanely looked after, I'd still want to spend a min of 8 - 10k on one, and to be honest, I'd probably want a new age car.

Anyway, I digress. Wonder if the car has been nicely mapped?

ScoobywagonGl

I doubt it ... surely they would have put that in the write up about the mods? I spent the weekend out and about in TC's type r hes just had that mapped and what a lovely car it is ... pops and bangs like a good un!

thats the only saloon i would ever have if i got one! but i cant afford one so will stick with my wagons til i can afford one
