    divide cost by bhp to get score; lower = better; new cars list price; stock bhp

    any better/worse???

    Ah whatever. Anyone can buy a cheap shed with a big engine and claim victory. I've heard stories of people picking up V12 Jag XJSes for £100- doesn't mean you're going to be blowing anyone off at the lights anytime soon.

    FWIW, my 120BHP Mk1 MR2 cost me £1300 so I'm at roughly 11 on the scale. It's still a shed though.

    Cost of new gearbox?

    I just hope the gearbox is a lot stronger than the last series of Ibiza's!
