Easily the lightest Challenge Metro turbo out there. Race regs where 825kg with driver. I weigh 110kg in race suit and helmet plus 6kg of ballast was added so without fuel it is a 709kg car.

Pretty much put an engine in it and go!....

So much more. Will add more as I go.

I am looking for £1700 for the rolling shell or the nearest offer.

If i didn't have the tax man to pay at the end of the month............

That is ridiculously cheap!!!

This car is the top draw, to say the least and john is giving it away at that price

Fucking hell. I almost want everyone on here to chip in just to keep it in the family.

Swap for a red mini? heh.

Sorry to see it's going, Jon.

I need to move on car wise.

The intention is to get back racing in 2 years or so but in something different.

It does break my heart but I found out my former team mate "Bacon Boy" had sold his Enterprise car so it egged me on to sell on!

I think with a bit of weight reduction and a 998 turbo, this would be a great hillclimb car.

I'm very tempted myself to polonk my motor in it. But money, space and other projects make it a no go.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Make some space Will. Be good to see it go to a good home!

I could easily get another 30kg out of it without spending a fortune.

JF.

Come on Wil! Get it bought! Surely you can make room for this legend!

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Maybe you could keep it where the TT2 was last week?

Damn thats cheap Jon! Cracking car :)

If only I had space I would give hill climbing a go for a year or two....

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!

wil-h its got your name on it and will go to a home, well looked after

Is the metro still for sale?

no.
