Is this for real? If so I would be tempted to buy a car like this just to pinch the wheels, exhaust, steering wheel etc then flog the rest in the parts section! 1992 though, that can't be right!

haha i like it but a smashed up tt could easy make that power, i think you have to state that you are doing a n/a-t or tt-t to prove the cheap stuff

 

plus its has to be usable as a daily, and i dont think you get a smashed up tt and bpu it for less than 2500
