General information -

After much thought & deliberation, as much as it saddens me, i have to sell the car. Need to free some cash up, i've driven it about 30 miles in the last year.

Basically, i bought the car with a knackered engine, it was originally a 1400 16v sport. I stored it in the garage for a bit, and gathered some bits, finally deciding to go down the 2.0 16v route.

Its been a long build, like 3 years or something, i work away from home alot & kept loosing intrest in it.

Its a cracking car to drive, and with a bit more spent on things like polycarbs and what not, it will be a cool little track weapon.

The spec...

The pictures arent the most up to date, theres a few bits missing off them like the rear lights, and heat shield, but you get the idea.

Condition -

The car has had a recent paint job, it wasnt the best in the world, but its all on colour, but, when i was playing with the cage, i found out the sunroof wouldnt fit, so i tried a few different methods and the biggest mistake was getting a carbon panel made up, i tried to bond it on but due to the curve in the roof it didnt work, and when removing the bonding agent, i damaged the paint around the hole. Now it has a standard roof panel in, that is fitted via a shortened mech and strong sealant, i've washed the car a couple of times & it does not leak at all. apart from that, the body work is pretty good, the interior is painted black, not the best finish, but to be fair, its not a show car, its a go car.

Its taxed & mot'd, i dont know exactly, but i'll find out if anyone wants to know.

Any questions, please feel free to ask, but no daft offers or swaps, i need cash for this car.

£2500ovno

Gutted your selling mate. If you decide to strip this I would be interested in seats, manifold and maybe cams depending upon spec. If not good luck with sale. Thumbs Up

Cheers Rich, think how i feel Cry

Cant justify keeping it when its taking up space, and we are needing money to finish the flat so we can move.

Hoping it will sell whole, but if not, you have dibs.

I wish there was another way, but this is the only viable way to free cash up, might have a new project next year when we move, i need a garage!

Would consider p/x for a learner suitable hatch, max p/x value is 1500, i want at least 1k cash back. Let me know what you have.
