For Sale: The Beast

[nuttinnew]

Sounds like a knackered old bus

Max rpm is somewhere around 2600rpm. They aren't musical without the 'charger of the Merlin engine providing some treble.

Would it sound better with a Griffon in it?

FUCKIN YEAH!

So long as it had the charger fitted of course.

Anyone up for putting a fiver on this?

I’m in

I think we are just putting a fiver behind our bets? Now I am confused.

@Gavster please clarify your intention.

[Ascender]

The noise was epic, but not in the way I expected.

[Sundayjumper]

@Gavster please clarify your intention.

I imagined it as a sweepstake arrangement.

I'm keeping out of it though

[Mito Man]

I once auctioned my own personal beast for a fiver but the reserve wasn’t hit.

It was going to be a sweepstake, but we might need to reset our bids as it’s now at £50k

Starting again, if you want to be in ‘The Beast’ sweepstake, put your bid below and send a fiver here:

Winning Bid (excluding fees)

mik £87k
Gavster £120k

edit: also what do we do if @Beany has already created the original proposed prizes? You couldn't just throw that shit in the bin....

"Closest bet wins a signed photo of beany, with a Superdrug lipstick imprint from his own fair lips. Furthest away bet wins two of these."

I love that this car exists. But soooo do not want.

I’m not sure the vid will do much to increase the sale price - there’s a lot of smoke / water vapour coming from that exhaust.

It would be absolutely useless for covert dewalt battery train horn operations as well.

Now you made me go and look.... the scream of the charger and the following gargle.... VOLUME UP!

I'm currently winning, maybe everyone who wanted to bid has done so!

I'm certainly not betting any money on such a foolish pursuit though.

The kitty is up to a life-changing £15

If you get a few more punters you'll be able to cover the cost of a Boots STD test kit which is pretty essential after you've been Beany'd.

Well, the votes are in; viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11046&p=123566&hili ... on#p123566

Ye cannae compare the car's cold engine at idle on tarmac to a fully warmed engine at operational revs in the air over grass for sound, on the other hand there's more chance of a tunnel vid with the car. I wonder which has the noisier cabin?

[Jobbo]

I love that this car exists. But soooo do not want.

Now I've seen it, I concur completely. If you want that experience in something appealing then get a Dodge Viper.
