    This is a non starter.
    Iv been away at uni and come back to this car and after only being used one or twice since September, its now not starting.
    I put it up for sale at Christmas, which is when I found out its not starting. I was offered £1200 for it to get trailered away at the time, but I planed to fix it and sell it for about £2000 in full working order. Sadly iv not had the time, and now I need the money more than the car so its up for sale as it is.


    Iv had the car for a couple of years now and its been the most fun car I have had.
    It's been well looked after with regular oil changes. As i said iv not had the chance to do much driving in the last year or so but the oil was flushed through and replaced with its usual 10w50 in December and not been driven since.




    Id like something around the £1200 mark, but open to offers
    Part excange possible so make an offer. Although the cash would be ideal.


    It is currently SORNed
    MOT September 2012



    The bits and pieces:
    Frontmount and hard pipes
    DW manual boost controller
    Stage 1 H Dev chipped ECU
    3 inch Japspeed decat system
    eBay air filter (sounds nice)
    flamer kit module. - This makes some huge flames but at the moment needs a new spark plug
    Apex gen 2 fast road coilovers. - very good condition. no leaks at all and the collers are in good condition. (I have the c spanners too)
    welded diff
    255 fuel pump


    Corbreau Revolution seat
    Super low subframe
    Sparco road legal harness
    Momo 'Drifting' wheel
    60mm pillar mounted boost gauge
    Rear strut brace
    Fly off handbrake button


    The car is genuinely very solid. There is not rust on the boot lid and the chassis is strong.


    Bad bits:
    The body work as you can see is genuinely good but behind the driver side rear wheel was a rust patch which has been knocked through due to tyre de lamination. This could be fully covered by an after market rear bumper, but really should be welded up.
    It needs a new downpipe gasket (3 inch) - I think I have a spare.
    The turbo line gaskets could do with replacing eventually as there is a bit of an oil leak there but nothing major.. it still pulls hard for a t25.
    Tracking - could be worth getting that done. again.. just being picky here.


    All the fundimentals are there, so with a bit of TLC this will be a really nice skidder again.

    A 2.5 inch Mongoose decat as an extra option for a quieter drive (sold off the car only)
    If you want this exhaust separately its yours for £110.




    I also have more skid rims, a polybushed subframe and the rear seats which could be included as some sort of package 'take the lot' deal. Possibly a spare diff too.


    The car is in Surrey.


    Thanks for looking.
