Craziest Saxo ever?!

[hyperblue]

What's up with the driving position? Looks like you'd be perched on the seat.

Shouldn't two GTI-6 engines make around 330hp?

Also, I'm pretty sure that will need an IVA test.

340bhp if stock.

Crazy car, crazy price too if its been done properly

Surprised it's so cheap and seems to be passed on a bit quickly.

I suspect this might be due to now matter how much you delude yourself, a car like this simply isn't as practical as an Elise and likely costs more to run. At worst it'll be using nearly double the fuel.

So two engines doing 30-35mpg, that's a vehicle only really clocking 15-18mpg.

Hello Mr Insurance. I'd like a quote on my Saxo please.

Certainly sir, is the car standard?

No, it has a couple of mods. Firstly, it now has 2 engines...

Click.

Hello? Hello?

No, you're alright, no need to tell insurance.

That really pisses me off!!!

Is there anywhere to report cars like this? It's idiots like these people that run the risk for legitimate kit builders and car converters.

What is your point exactly?

Using 'brought' instead of 'bought' is one of my real bugbears. Plain and simple - it's the wrong fecking word.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

Cool. I took the same approach with my Noble one year. It has the same side repeaters as a Ford Fiesta, so I insured it as that. Much cheapness, result!

and just for the hard of thinking, no I didn't...
