There will be loads ive missed, but as you can see an awful lot of money has gone into this car. The car has been made to be light weight, and the engine has been fully rebuilt, and is like new! The engine has done 600 miles since its rebuild, and is being used every day. Ive dropped the oil and changed the filter at the 500 mile mark, and will again once it gets to the 1000 mile mark. Then the engine will be past the fully ran in period.
The loom has been stripped down, and only the essentials have been left in place (lighting externally) Front wipers, etc.. Everything else has been removed. This has been done properly as im an electrician by trade.
Although the car is awsome to drive, and is proving to be an animal on the road, its unpractical for me.
Im going self employed in the next few weeks, and its not a car i can use for work really, as i require a small van or diesel car, as i will be racking up some mileage.
The car has had no issues since the rebuild, and i welcome any RAC or AA inspection.
The engine is the early ASTRA GTE engine, which is the 156bhp standard one, with no cat or lambda... (basically the best one)...
With a handfull of other modifications, my guess is she will be pushing around 160-170 bhp.. giving the car a power to weight ratio of 260ish...
With the small ratio box, and the limited slip quaife diff, there isnt much that will beat this off the line.
Sad to see the car go, but needs must!
Open for PX for a small van & cash my way.
Remember this isnt like most other redtops for sale that have been ragged to death, its practically a brand new engine which has only covered 600+ miles!!
Viewing welcome.
Will only allow you to test drive if you are insured to do so, if not i will take you out in her.
Looking for £2650 or very near offer..
(the oil has just been dropped out, and ive replaced the filters and oil again)... Using daily, and from the 23rd to the 27th i will be doing 70miles a day as im on a course for the week... However you can view in the evenings.
Im selling due to going self employed as an electrician, so this is covering the cost of my ELECSA fee, a van, and a few tools.. Its not really a practical car to be driving to and from customers homes... as much as id love to keep it, i simply cant.
No interior other than whats seen... i just unloaded it all down the tip... their only around £60 anyhow...
Just had a new speed sensor pick up (genuine part)...
Loads of pics on my build thread....
