First, for those Jalops living in the US, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! However, for our petrol-heads across the pond you can own a real F1 car driven by Jenson Button for only 75,000 GBP. Now before you scream "NICE PRICE," this car does not have an engine. It does have pretty much everything else that makes an F1 car.

So if you are a UK Jalop with a boat-load of quid ( did I use that right? I learned it from Top Gear ) laying around, this could be your chance to own a real-deal F1 machine.

Yes, yes I do.

I wonder if a Judd V8 would fit. Someone with appropriate resources needs to make it happen and find out.

Alternatively, Cosworth might have some power units from the last few years that could be made to work. If those aren't available, Hartley V8.
