Cheap Audi TT or is it ?
« on: 25 April 2013, 23:04:30 »


Didn't even now you could get a TT kit, until now  :)

I take it they are based on the metro cab  ???

Well why not?
It's not as if it's any uglier than a real TT.

Drop a 160BHP VVC K series in it and I bet it would go quite well :y

Not come across a Banham for a while. Not my cup of tea, but each to their own. Not sure why you'd make a vastly inferior replica of something you could buy for the same money these days, but there you go.

My cousin has a Banham Spyder:

Take one Skoda Estelle not very Rapid, one angle grinder and some GRP bodywork...

Now that I get given the current value of a Spyder is a million plus, the Audi a little odd as for an extra few hundred quid you can get the real thing  ;)

Yeah, I was referring to the Audi, of course.
