Remember the Vuhl 05? In a world of roofless track specials, we"d forgive you if you"d forgotten the most Mexican of the lot. To help place it further forward in your conscience, it"s been updated. Thus, meet the Vuhl 05RR, with a stonking 40 per cent power increase that pushes its power-to-weight ratio past a Bugatti Veyron"s. Its Ford-sourced 2.0-litre turbo engine now produces a stonking 396bhp, with a new sequential gearbox and a racier clutch and flywheel helping make sense of it all. Vuhl has also cut weight from the already-needs-tying-down-on-windy-days 05, down 65kg at 660kg with the help of some carbon wheels, among other things. You"ll note everything but the tyres appears to be made of carbon.
