not bad for £1300
Forged wheels too. Hoping I can get back most of the cost by selling off what I don't need.
you wouldn't like to give me the mirrors would you? someone nicked one off my bmw 
I'd not break that!
What an excellent track car that'd make for not much more money....
mhmmm... my TVR would quite like having a go at digesting the engine from that!!!

£1300 !!!
you like expensive motors .
i wouldnt say no to the gearbox .
mmm chavtastic. Think i'd get it on the road and use it at that price. Wouldn't trust myself in a seven with that much power.
£1300 is cheap as chips for a pukka m3. was thinking alfa v6 but that would cost £500 just for the lump never mind making it RWD.
As above there's potential for it only costing me £300ish for a proven 300bhp engine. whats expensive about that?
some people will pay £6k for a 230bhp n/a duratec. thats expensive!

cheapest 3.0 24v v6 I could find was £500 and that was a bargin as it had everything on the front subframe too.
It was the cost of a RWD conversion to it too added to needing an extra manifold etc etc.
no matter what anyone says thats a billy bargain and a cracker of a engine
they like a bit of boost too when 300bhp is not enough

I could have bought you a 24V 2.9 cosworth engine for less than that, but then youd need to MS it.
Bargain mate but i wouldnt break it. id fix it and track it.
I`ve bought 2 cosworth v6 BOA engines, first cost £180 5 years ago, 2nd 2 years ago £130, although second one i had to drive 400 miles in total to
collect.

Seems a real bargain to me too!
Second dibs on the mirrors 
Fibreglass panels, stripped interior, quick tidy up, all the heavy useless poo removed, roll cage, custom simplified dash and hey presto, a perfect track day car.

Beware the cost of fixing and tracking an M3!
They eat brakes, tyres and clutches.
BUT
they are bloo*y good trackers!
£1300 ! What is wrong with it?
Its got a small bump on 2 corners, its got a new clutch too so not worried about that
What do you mean fix it? It's already been taped up perfectly well! Use it for a locost, but first flog the interior and track it at least once
first before you break it fully!!!
