Bowler EXR-S
With an estimated sale price
of anywhere between £ 95,000 and £ 115,000, this supercharged Bowler EXR-S will
be auctioned off at the Silverstone race circuit on Friday May 20th.
This 2015 car is 'Chassis
no.1", making it the very first of just three right-hand drive examples,
which boosts the exclusivity factor.
It has only been driven 772 km which means that it hasn't even been properly broken in yet,
though we'd imagine this isn't the type of vehicle you ease into after you purchase
it, not with those 550 BHP on tap.
The
EXR-S is built on a hydroformed Range Rover Sport chassis with an integrated
FIA roll cage. The previously mentioned 550 BHP come from a 5.0-liter V8
supercharged engine, which is also good for 625 Nm of torque .
In a straight line, it will
need just 4.2 seconds in order to hit 96 km/h, whereas the top speed
sits at 250 km/h and is electronically limited.
Other major technical specs
include the 6-speed automatic gearbox with paddle shifters, the 50/50 permanent
four-wheel drive system, double wishbone, fully independent front & rear
suspension, bespoke Bilstein dampers, Eibach progressive springs and the 6 pot
caliper Brembo brakes.
Inside, you've still got
some nice comfort-oriented features like the leather detailing, dual climate
control, and the Pioneer audio system with Bluetooth and iPod compatibility.
