Wouldn't buying/fitting a set of portals cost about the same as buying a family sedan?

For LC78, kit costs 19K

For Patrol, 16K

I would imagine this would be round the 15K mark....slightly smaller portal assy.

It would be an absolute nightmare to drive up a majority of tracks that have tree roots and shite sticking out from the sides as it's track looks stupidly wide!
