Awesome car, that has taken a lot of work / time and money to get to that standard.

awesome car but to be brutally honest someone would have to be pissed or on loads of drugs to pay that...

I wouldnt pay more than 10k for a car like that.. the owner is playing on its rarity !






I WANT IT  :grin: :grin:

The thing is its no longer what it used to be ! and the fact hes spent alot on it dosn't make it any more than it is either yes i think its worth maybe 8k tops i'm sure i could build this quality of car with the people i know for circa 5k not including the original car!

Thats parts involved not the car! a mk5 r32 engine will be about 3.5k with most parts needed not much else needed apart from skills then put 2-3k on top of that maybe for the car originally. obviously not starting with a syncro version because they are rare but something like a rallye "same floor pan" i am more than confident this is achievable i know alot of guys in the trade including my skills i dont think anything is impossible.
