Lees' car IIRC.

If it's to your taste, then a real bargain!!

There has obviously been a shed load of work put into that car, not a big lover of the white outlining tho', but gotta admire the detail. I'm assuming that's a fully working digital dash and not the worlds fastest 'Whack a'Mole' (sorry, first impression)

Last time I saw it all the gauges lit up. What they were telling me I have no idea as I did not look closely but there has to be far more gauges than parameters to measure.

It's a very 'worked' car, must have took a lot of time to do that interior. Mind you, I'd have expected a steering wheel

Chavtastic!

Hi Gaz

absolute bargain, it is Lees car, they need it gone coz of the emigration, i was up with it a few weekends ago, a lttle bit of love needs to be spent on it, but if i had 35k and another double garage i would have had it myself (silver stripeing would have to come off though - sorry Lee)

with all that technology and dials and switches etc, its obvious its drives via thought waves !


I did see the car at an Ultima open day and was in two minds.... IE Great piece of interior detail work - trimming etc..... but also reminded me of a Saxo/astra/205 which had £30k spent on it that you see with a 10 million watt stereo playing as it cruses along....

Agree a bit bling but quality. At that price a bargin and hey you could always spend some time toning it down. Anyone who knows what it costs to build to that spec will appreciate the cost. Good luck with the sale

Can't understand why people like to think the GTR is a "luxury" sportscar :0(

I dont think it is that people think it is a luxury car, i think its the fact that you build this car yourself and you do 'anything' at all to it that you want. Its an expression of your personal creativity and taste. Therfore you can have stripped out racer to blingy digital car.

And i think the saying is 'Horses for courses', ...... oh and theres no accounting for taste.

It's funny how quickly you can just go right off of someone sometimes isn't it?
