Default Sumo Power (Andy Barnes) modified M3

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/64754.htm

£90K!




Due to the nature of this car, you can not have a test drive, you can not come and look at the car and it is not kept at my address. Please do not ask for a test drive! This is a genuine auction for one of the best looking BMW M3's around. It will be delivered to the highest bidders door on receipt of payment. This must be either in cash/cheque or bankers draft. Either way I will need to be physically holding the cash before I let the car go. All info is below along with photos. The car is featured in this months Max Power on page 144. Check it out. I can be contacted on 07812131991 if you have any serious questions. Please bear in mind that this car is also being advertised elsewhere. Selling purely because we cannot afford insurance and have nowhere to keep the beast!
Bet they'll be falling over themselves to buy this

From what I can gather the guy seems a bit arrogant at most events etc. It's ironic that my old red Rs turbo was only 0.3 of a second slower 0-60!

"To anyone on a particular forum who seem to be getting very upset by me advertising this car (I'm sure they're not jealous!) I would like to state that the engine in this BMW is a straight six 340bhp M3 engine, not a GTR. The bodykit is GTR, designed and built expertly by Sumo Power. 0-60 in 5.3 seconds and a top speed of 155mph. Hope this clears up any queries and I do whole heartedly apologise for any confusion I have caused any of you!!!!!! "
