Nice 350bhp run around for the missus


EVER fancied a Hayabusa with the load carrying capacity of that family favourite, the Volkswagen Golf? Well this could be the car for you.

Harvey Rice of HR Engineering, specialists in car rear wheel drive conversions, is selling the company car, a Mark 1 Golf, converted to rear wheel drive and powered by a turbo charged Hayabusa engine.

Making around 350bhp and weighing in at just 595kg, this Golf has a power to weight ratio of 588bhp per ton - more than the McLaren F1.

You can watch a video of it here:

The car was developed over a year and is a true one off. It's yours for £26,000. Contact Harvey Rice on 01799 599 188 if you're interested in buying it.
