I turned my beat-up old Mercedes into a supercar

A beaten-up old Mercedes SL550 has been turned into a "custom supercar" for a ridiculously low price.

Popular Tiktoker Grant Sloan revealed the incredible transformation as he upgraded the engine, got custom headlights and even covered it in a bright yellow wrap.

Sloan says he did the entire project for under £10,000 - including buying the Mercedes motor.

The car came in at a bargain price of just over £6,000 and the wrap just £300.

Other money went on customised headlights, fog lights and brake lights.

The back bumpers trim piece was also replaced with a carbon fibre diffuser as a new set of wheels, grill, tires and splitters were all included.

The original car has done 140,000 miles on its 5.5L V8 engine and is now ready to attract admiring looks on the road again.
