Volvo 340 - Clio 1.8 16v GSX-R carb powers - Drifting forum

doz · 12-05-2008, 19:14

First off, im gutted to have to do this, I bought the car only this weekend and planned to use it for my daily driver to commute 40 miles a day, but it's just not gonna work out, I simply can't afford a petrol daily driver

As everyone knows this car was built up by Mattyboi and the car is totally bad ass. Fast as hell and skids up second really good. Has a mental induction roar and a badical side exit exhaust

I bought the car with stock interior and one set of wheels plus alot of tyres for £850 on ebay. I however gave Mr. bunny (pleasure to meet you sir) an extra £50 for another pair of newer style white wellers/legal yokohama tyres and bought another black pair of 13x7 wellers for the back with legal falken tyres on.

I rolled the rear arches, tidied the interior and fitted a bucket seat and harnesses, but the seat and harness isnt included.

Specs:

10 Months MOT
6 Months tax
Hydraulic Handbrake
Renault 1.8 16 valve engine
GSXR carbs on custom inlet manifold
Clio williams tubular exhaust manifold
Custom Side exit exhaust
Lowerd on springs on the front
Uprated shocks on the rear
2" lowering blocks on the leaf springs
Fully stripped interior (needs wiping through with petrol)
Excellent condition bodywork for age
Spare Prop
Welded Diff
4 x old style weller wheels (13 x 6??)
2 x new style white weller wheels (13 x 7)
2 x new style black weller wheels (13 x 7)
ALOT of tyres, at least 6, but possibly 8 are road legal (Yokohama's/Falkens)
Gary Coleman 1 off bonnet

The thing is mental and I really wish I didnt have to sell. The moment I sat in it I was grinning ear to ear. the fact of the matter is I simply can't afford to run her to and fro from work

I feel a bit of a dick selling so fast, but I have no choice

Bad bits:
gear synco at high revs (9500rpm ish) isn't perfect but does engage ok.
Boot lock is removed
1 Rear bumper bracket is missing (dropped slightly on the near side)

£900 all in, I just need it gone

or for a grand I will include the Sparco evo bucket seat and sparco 4 point harness.
