    I remember when I saw them at the RAC rally. and also at croft autocross. Ballistically quick but too expensive. I seem to remember at the time they said there was something like 10 original Metro components on the whole car, and one of them was the badge!

    312mm front discs. EGR removed. DeCat, Forge Quick shift, De locked, Anni Wheels. VAGCOM

    Also got a 1430cc mini with 110hp (fly)

    Amazing car in a straight line, but terrible when it comes to corners...  Devil

    I think they look stunning - would love one, but that price tag frightens me!  Surprise

    I would rather spend £60k on upgrading my flat to a nice 3 bedroom house with a garage for my Golf 25th Anni.

    Is that realistic money the fella is asking?

    I don't like the fact it still looks like a Metro :) I don't know how rich I would have to be to want one of those personally.

    Pretty reasonable, i've seen them advertised at £100k+ before, as was a road going version of the RS200 above, think that was £120k on the trader a year or so ago
