They used to do a considerably cheaper version of that - tubular chassis/cage which you just stuck a bunch of Landrover parts on. I think they sold the rights to another company who still makes them but can't remember what that company is.

New Widcats are about £50 grand iirc
You can pick up (no pun) a 10 year old Tomcat 100" with 9k miles and a 4.8L engine for around £16-17 grand

The original kit based on a Land Rover chassis was the Tomcat. IIRC Bowler sold this off to concerntrate on building the space framed Wildcat.
You can pick up Tomcats for not too much money, but then again, the quality does vary considerably too.

Although a TVR/RR lump isn't exactly silly powered. Expensive, to mod, but not overely powerfull in any form.
Now if it were a GM LS7 engine, now THAT would be silly power.
Cracking off roader though
