Is it wrong of me to want to spend £8500.00 on this?

I know it won't be everyones cup of tea and some of you won't even get it in the slightest, but theres a small part of me which really believes I can justify spending this type of money on this type of car.

And anyway its not like I'm being that ridiculous

Considering its advertised at £6,500 then yes, spending £8,500 would be very stupid indeed

£6500.00 doesn't include the wheels or the stretched rubber.

G60 base car doesn't come in right hand drive

I agree initially paying a premium for a G60 model and then ripping out the supercharged lump seems a bit daft but theres just something awesome about the G60 in general.

Despite the general opinion on left hookers, if you know the G60 you know it commands a premium over the standard 8V/16V GTI.

The G60 is only going to increase in value in my opinion, its a rare car which was never officially imported to the UK.

form over function is stupid

I've found that if done right (see not cheaping out) a slammed Mk2 isn't 'oh my god its ruined the handling' that people claim.

I've never really liked the angles of the Rallye. Love the G60 though
