Now that's how to pimp a ride! Chinese farmer builds replica £1m Lamborghini for just £6,000... and it has top speed of 160mph

Many of us dream of owning our very own supercar, but invariably it remains just that - an unobtainable wish.
One humble farmer's son, however, has shown the world how to make it a reality, of sorts, after building himself a replica £1million Lamborghini for just £6,000.
Wang Jian, who comes from a rural area of China's eastern Jiangsu province, pieced his motor together using a second-hand Nissan and a Volkswagen Santana.

Top idea: A Chinese mechanic has made himself a replica Lamborghini using second-hand cars for just £6,000

The real thing: The replica has been modelled on a 2007 Lamborghini Reventon, of which only around 21 models were made worldwide and fetches around £1million

Although some parts, such as the headlights and windshields are still missing, the car is otherwise fully operational and can reach a top speed of 160mph.

The 28-year-old was born into a farming family, but chose a career as a mechanic when was 16 because of his passion for cars, it was reported by the Daily Telegraph.

He said: 'I've always loved sports cars since I was a child.
'After growing up, I thought of making my own when I had the circumstances in life and the knowledge.
'In order to realise this dream, I struggled to learn about this. When I had the right circumstances and the time, I assembled it myself and realised my dream,' he said.
