Cheaptastic bang for buck Monaro?
Discussion
Gents,
How about this:

Seems cheap for a supercharged low-mile Monaro. It's had a fair few owners, mind. Too good to be true? I'm not in the market myself (will soon be piloting a Swedish torque steer fest due to imminent arrival of sprog 2.0), but if this is a clean car that surely is decent value?
Should be fun on the standard brakes as well I reckon

522 BHP and CV8 brakes/TC sounds very scarry indeed.
If you are going to buy it I'd factor in another £4k for the above.

I did sortof mention that in the original post, that was my point. And I'm not going to buy it either, just thought y'all might be interested. 522 BHP and CV8 brakes/TC sounds very scarry indeed.

Not at all, I have standard brakes on mine with 520bhp and they are fine for every day driving. With decent anticipation of other's actions and a smooth style you hardly ever need to use the full force of the brakes. However, I would never try to take it to a track on standard stoppers. Also, TC is for girls - just be delicate with the throttle when wet/icy. Fuel consumption is about the same/slightly better than standard although it can be terrible if you use all of the performance all of the time.
I bought my (standard) 06 CV8 in June this year; with the Wortec and SC I have spent a total of £28k which I'll never get back. By the looks of it this car looks very good value indeed.
