10 Expensive Rides With Parts Borrowed From Cheap Cars
Just because a car is ludicrously expensive, that doesn't mean all of its parts are uniquely milled from unobtanium. Occasionally, supercars borrow parts from much cheaper cars, and occasionally their unique parts look identical to those found on very ordinary motors!

You guys might haven’t seen this yet, since there’s no new Protons in Europe/UK,
But the Evora 400/Sport 410 has the super cheapass side mirrors from a Proton Saga FLX, lol. Well, Proton owns Lotus and they do a lot of parts sharing.
Lol guys! By the way the photo of Vauxhall is mine! And actually it’s Opel Insignia OPC! )
Opel,Vauxhall,Holden and Buick are pretty much the same thing today with few exceptions
Shame on you for missing out this 😎
Delorean isn’t most of that Ford and Renault parts
Back lights on a Ford Cortina MK1 will fit a TVR Grantura
:o
you forget the inside door opener from DB7 and MX5 NA
Some of these are a little far fetched yet the Jaguar XJ220 using Rover 200 rear lights gets missed
Also the noble M12 used mk1 mondeo saloon rear lights…
And the MG XPower SV using fiat pinto front lights
XPower also used Fiat Coupé tailights
Once to be seen, can not be unseen :D
There is a bus with the same front headlights of the BMW E46
I call bs on The third one.
