Nice hillclimb / autox(?) car for sale in the UK

A Radical - 12,000 pounds sterling... What a car for the price, hey?

None of the K16 I've looked at have VVT.


Looks like they're available withoot them. I'll have to see if I can find an actual model number on the turbos for the 997. VVT also doesn't use waste gates.

That's a 3.6 with two turbos

Oh boy!

Would be perfect for hillclimbs, but classing, in SCCA would kill it for autox.

Nice part, build a subframe to hold it and you're done.

Scared to ask the weight.



Looks like 2525 for SSM on 275 tires. Add 200 lbs for anything wider. 2200 for XP. Great price on it though.
