Ok.. so you've been given £20k to spend on your car... but you are not allowed to spend it on a new car, only on modding your own... What would you spend it on?? |

I would turn my car into the nearest I could get to a Litchfield Type-25 The 2.5 ltr Cosworth built engine and the AST suspension The Porshe Brakes If had any money left the custom leather interior too A real one is about 40k so should be in budget |

3 steps... 1) ENGINE - Supercharged, forged 3.0 litre V6 from a Camry (around £8k inc labour) 2) HANDLING & BRAKES - coilovers, polybush kit, 320mm front rotors & 4 pots (around £2.5k) 3) WHEELS - forged 16" rims 7.5" front, 8.5" rear + R888s (£1500) 4) WEIGHT - carbon bonnet, bootlid, engine cover, front wings, moonroof blank - seats (£2500) which leaves me around 5k for a respray to match the carbon, and petrol money. I would be as happy as a pig in doo-doo
