The second Top Gear video there is mostly of the original Tiger Z100 which was rear wheel drive twin ZX9 the same as the Westie link, and owned by Simon Ranson. Coincidentally its for sale on Ebay at the moment here

You only need a fancy ECU if you want to run 4WD with one engine running the front wheels and the other running the rears. For a RWD car the big expense is the transfer box and doubling up on exhausts etc.
