Not a bad price. Still twice what I could/would pay on one.

Bloody Midgets make me have to crawl out where as the Spitfire is a lot easier. I wouldn't go for either of them built by BL though as it will be shit. I still have a few 1500 Midget bits kicking around including a couple of cylinder heads if you want them.
The Spitfire was the only car that this big fucker couldn't drive when it's fitted with the stock steering wheel.

I wonder if they can prove this really has a turbo…

Oh yes, I think I see it now.
Holy moly… I’m staggered by the look of this thing. Can’t imagine the sound!

But one way or another it would cripple you - either the divorce money or the service / maintenance costs.

You probably have to use snail-mail to request the power to be turned on.

I’m not really one for the new beetle (having enjoyed the original so much in my youth), but this looks surprisingly good.
