Description
I have loved driving this car since my first drive in it. Now selling as my partner has health issues and really struggles to get in and out of this low slung sports car. Just had the MOT done and its had two brand new Goodyear Eagle F! Asymmetric tyres. I also had an oil service carried out too for peace of mind (prior oil service was in March 24 at 112617 miles. Overall the car is in good condition and drives well. As you might expect there is the odd small chips and minor scratch on the bodywork. The alloys have the odd small scuff as you might expect too. The interior is clean and tidy and everything works.
Car has been cared for and serviced / maintained properly. I have also had extra work done but wanted to keep the car more or less standard . The engine is standard (not chipped). It has some black silicone Forge hoses (which was the longer lasting option and they look nice too). There is also a renewable / cleanable K&N filter (supposed to add power but I think we are talking maybe a single horse or maybe a pair of horses if your lucky). The brake discs and pads are standard size but they are nice looking Brembo cross drilled and grooved high carbon. Pads are Brembo too. The brake fluid is Miller racing fluid which has a higher boiling point (last changed in March 2024 at 112350 miles).
Service history - the car has 15 stamps in the book. The cambelt / water pump / tensioners was last done in September 2021 . They are good for 80K miles. The water pump also has a metal impeller (not the cheap plastic type that can break and give you a big headache). The Haldex was last serviced In January 2023 at 107432 miles.
Other work. The car had a new clutch and flywheel in April 2019 at 96234 miles (cost was 2100). New rear calipers, thermostat, coolant and discs and pads (Brembo) in April 2021 (cost 1073). Full suspension renewal Dec 2021 inc springs shocks etc (cost 2200). New EGT sensor and fuel filter in July 2021 (cost 658). New driveshafts / gearbox oil in Feb 2022 (cost 972). Engine refresh at TTRS motorsport in July 2022 which included new MAF, rocker cover gasket, hoses, mounts and bushes greased (cost 2485). New dashboard display in August 2022 with better than OEM quality screen so it wont pixelate ever again (cost 125).
So...all of the big costs in keeping these special cars in good condition has been done. For me I will be sad to sell but if I am not going to use it I hope someone else can enjoy it. Happy to answer questions as needed.
