Unfortunately, circumstances have forced me to sell my track car. i vowed I wouldnt do this until I was almost out of l0lly, but im now down to the soggy white stick, so i have no choice. it had very little use last year, and they way things are looking, it wont get much this year either. Its worth too much to be sat there doing nothing.
I dont want to break it yet, for many reasons. one, it would break my heart, im not one of the breed of enthusiasts who get bored of a car once its built and just sell up again. I spent a lot of time and effort on this car, and taking it to bits again doesnt appeal to me. Two, I dont have the space to strip a car at present due to a current project, and i need the money pretty quick!. It will go up for what i feel the car is worth to me, and I will try on here first, then it will get a week on ebay as a classified ad. if its still not gone, it will be broken as a last resort. Dont bother asking for bits until its confirmed Im breaking it.
And i WILL build another one :) Unless I go completely under :(
So anyway.
Originally a 1.2 Spin, now a 2.0 16v. Still a 1.2 on the logbook, as since i built it, its never been on the road.
The engine is running standard injectors at nearly their maximum capacity. the car will come with a set of yellow injectors which should, when remapped, give around 220bhp, maybe even a tad more.

I want £4500 NO OFFERS. Car is located near Bristol. Im not up there all the time, so only arrange a viewing if GENUINELY interested! Test drives not possible due to lack of exhaust and not road legal.
