The ultimate classic shape mini-

0-60 under 3seconds
0-100 under 7seconds
345bhp + 650kg + RWD=

I've had the car built from a standard mini (took over a year to be built) every part on the car is the best available- no expense spared.

You can't put into words the acceleration of this car it is awesome!!

Cost over £35,000 to build, for sale due to change in personal circumstances.

Serious offers or for more details for seriously interested people: 07990 502883-Matt

Having driven this :

I can't even begin to imagine how quick a twin bike engined mini would feel!

Oh and BTTT!

I don't want to distract from the sellers post but...

It's a rallycross car which races in the modified category and it is spaceframed with fiberglass panels. Standard JDM Civic SiR II 1600 engine with 170BHP but the gearbox has quaife gears and a gripper diff. There is actually an EVO 5 which sometimes races in the same category and I can't wait for him to get beaten by this little mini!

Made the A final at Lydden a couple of weeks ago with the wrong tyres (long story) and should be on men and motors at 9PM on May 17th.

G - I would guess going by that description yes. I believe it's the only one in the UK (and possibly the world!).

Back to the top for Matt as well.

Always remember bout 5 years ago,seeing a red classic mini with a guy in it,never seen a thing go so fast,so qiuck and get into 5th within 50-60 meters.Caned an M3,300 twin turbo ZX and a Saff Cossy 4wd that had the nuts tuned out of it.Extremely impressed,especially as all the strip were laughing at him the first time ha pulled up,but they only did it once.
Does that site have prices on it also for conversions,sound a nice play toy
Regards
Gene

Steve,

Think I upset some of the people on hondarevolutions for destroying what is apparently quite a rare car?

Goes pretty well though! rev limiter is currently set to 8800 and it gets hit rather a lot!

Great bit of kit....as Darren has stated it's a little too high for my purpose....having seen quite a few Z car productions inc my mate's Westfield type motor (Peter Granger) they are a very special tool

Good luck
