Description:

Competent and Quality Build Track Car. Originally purchased in the UK and returned to Ireland.

Still on UK registration and SORN to an Northern Irish address. MOT expired in March 2018. Year 2001 with 114,000 Miles. Car is based in Southern Ireland.

Engine very smooth and does not burn oil. Vanos and DISA are ok.

I sent it to Centre Gravity, UK and had them set the car up professionally at a cost of £2340 excluding the cost of a brand new HSD Monopro and Eibach suspension.

I have driven the car on 3 trackdays at Mondello and the car has performed flawlessly and proved capable of holding it's own with much more powerful cars such as M3 and Porsche 911, with Porsche Boxster no match at all. Even Lotus Elise were well matched.

The car is in excellent condition with no wear or service parts required except perhaps the tyres which have a track day or 2 left on them but can be improved upon, they were to be my last investment in the car.

I have set up this car and gone through it to make it fault free as my long term relaible track toy. All the work has been done.

 Unfortunately family matters dictate it should be sold.

Note: There is No Roll Cage as I have not been competing.
