Challenger001 70 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) This Wednesday at 20:00 BST will be a Top Gear Reasonably Priced Car night. With the prices of vehicles rising with every update, it's nice to know you can pay less than you get for completing your Daily Challenges. We examine the prospect of competing against each other on a limited budget. Rules: Any Sedan purchasable off Southern San Andreas Super Autos that costs less than $23,000. There is a strict maximum of $23,000 spend on your vehicle. This includes all upgrades (i.e. if you want to add spoiler, you have to add it to the price of the vehicle. Think along the lines of the Porsche challenge 'spend what you have left after your purchase on upgrading). >An aftermarket spray job must be included in the price. You may not turn up in a car the same colour as ordered off the website (so no white, black, lime green, hot pink, red, blue, orange or yellow) Meet up We will meet up at the Galileo Observatory for some free roam testing before moving onto a playlist of races if time allows. Beware the penalty car! Penalty Car if you don't buy anything for the races (i.e. doing a Stapp): Stock Emperor. Post below to sign up...

Mark Verstappen 392 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 @JuniorChubb I have no clue on hardware. I just asked a friend what would be good to build a new PC and basically bought that. Build it myself when it arrived though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger001 70 Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Added one extra rule in the first post. Everyone -must- respray their car and add that price to the total cost, hence the extra $1k compared to when I last ran a cheap car challenge like this (I did it in multiples of 11, so last time I did it $22k). This is also to avoid people turning up in hideously bright colours for an otherwise 'ordinary' and cheap event. Break out the gloss Sea Green and Grace Red everyone! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyeDave 956 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Do we do our modifications (within the budget) before we show up on the night? Just checking there isn't a before and after before I blow a few hundred quid on a spoiler and find out I shouldn't have yet. (There's a recession on don't you know) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger001 70 Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 All modifications must be done before the night, if you can give a breakdown in here as to what you spent that would make it easier but if you want it to be a surprise you can. For example: Declasse Primo ($10,000) Custom Front Splitter ($1,000) Big Bore Exhaust ($1,800) Tuner Wing ($550) Engine Upgrade 2 ($2500) Street Transmission ($5900) Classic Saxon Blue Paint ($900) =$22,650 I also have a few interested friends who were excited by me running a cheap car challenge again, so if you guys don't mind, may I bring them along?

SkyeDave 956 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Oh and @Challenger001 I didn't say but I have no issues at all with your other pals coming along. As long as they're all worse than me and if possible better than Mulder. Somehow. Edited May 12, 2020 by SkyeDave 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger001 70 Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) f*ck, I actually meant to post 'Premier' as that was what I used for my testing, haha. Similar names, must have slipped. If you want to post it publicly, go for it. Variety is the spice of life after all, and the PH cars will probably remain a secret until the day as well. Having it public makes my job easier, but it's up to you guys reallly. First time making one of these challenges on here so I'm going to see how it goes.

Mark Verstappen 392 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 How many of your pals are that challenger? If its like 10+ I think its a bit much. But I'd say a few is more than fine. Also Eser and Badinga would like to join again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger001 70 Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 Honestly I'm only expecting three. The rest can't behave themselves and won't be let in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
