Pay all that money, drive off the forecourt and get done for an illegal number plate!

i wonder what the substantial chassis mods and suspension upgrades are, wonder if the dampers can be fitted to a standard car? if i was keeping my defender the dampers were next on the list, a long with alive - springs for the 90.

Is that a screen protection bar or a roll over bar?
If the former, then seems a bit blingy for a rumpty tumpty Bowler |

It's a full roll cage looks pretty hefty. Got some fancy strong lightweight wheels.

I guess it depends what you are expecting.. Yes it's not had an engine change but they are claiming significantly better performance (0-60) and you'd be surprised what a little chassis tuning can do to the character of a car. Personally I'd much rather give my (imaginary) 50k to Bowler than someone like JE.. |

The mods need to be considerable considering its almost double the price of a factory order XS SW. Alot of the parts are bolt ons: bumper, sliders etc.
The mirror image 'Bowler' sticker doesn't look too good,but i can see the idea behind it... kind of |
