If I had my chance again I wouldn't go for daft horsepower. You cant use it on public roads. 400bhp is enough. The one saving grace on my car is that it is drivable, it doesn't have daft cams on it like some of the motors.
well said ...
500bhp+ is just lethal on the roads.....
all 4 wheels spinning at 100mph isnt fun..... but funny if you havent lost control lol

you will need plastic side surrounds too as your car will not have radio buttons on the steering wheel.

Agree the 1st bit being lethal lol and a spooly 350bhp in a classic is an ideal road car for me but all wheels spinning at 100 mph makes all effort and ££££'s worth while no better feeling couldn't use it every day tho or I probs wouldn't be here now if I did

There's no funnier feeling then over taking people with wheels spinning and your already over 80-100mph,
Factor in abit of blindness and its surprising if hung on as i have done
