The Raven Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hi guys just gauging interest in my UK TT auto 90k miles, about to have a new MOT and 6 Months tax. Lots of history including cam belt, discs, pads, tyres. Everything works (heated seats, air con, active spoiler) Bad points wheels could do with a referb and the stone chips. Rear spoiler has a hair line crack in it where a car wash didnt pick it up. More to the point its totaly stock apart from the cd player and supra blanking plate. http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/7640/sdc10664vm7.jpg http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/8590/sdc10665bb7.jpg http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/9370/sdc10668rt3.jpg http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/8279/sdc10670oa9.jpg http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/6708/sdc10671ki7.jpg Cat 1 fitted with cert too.

michael Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Why thank you, If i dont get what i want for it i will keep it. That's the approach I'm likely to take with mine, I just can't bring myself to do the advert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Did the guy from France not bite? At the moment with the Euro/£ rate, France will be the place where you'll get the best price and probably the best chance of a sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He asked if i would be willing to sell now or in 2 months time, I told him i would MOT it and then it would be ready to go. Im only 15 miles ish from dover too.

Guest r34nel Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 i think the wheels spoil this otherwise lovely car, a refurb would pay for itself i think if you want to keep it stock, they kinda make it look old if im honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I'd definetly get the wheels refurbed as they make or brake how a car looks, should only cost approx £150 to get them looking like new again. The rest looks pretty good for the age, they do wear well if looked after dont they the engine bay looks very good and brings back memories of my 1st uk car Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 With any luck the wheels will be taken care of tomorrow, Failng that i will referb them when i get a good enough deal on them. I keep shopping around for someone to do them cheaply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Looking for the third one now Russ!! You not intrested in the BPU route with this one then? I take your point about not wanting to mess a stock car up. But I can almost guarantee whoever gets it will mod it, so it might as well be you. Anyway, why would you want to swap a nice rigid roof for something that leaks and will hardly get used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 Ok been asked a few questions about the car so i will post this up. Being as honest as i can about the car as i dont want to feel like im trying to hood wink anyone. Service stamped up to 70k miles. (currently sitting at 90k) Bill showing both front shocks at 44k miles Camber control arm at 61k miles cam belt and tensioner changed at 76k miles with front discs and pads and new radiator. Then since i have had it, Replaced Cam cover gasket (left and right) New rear discs and pads Change coolent hoses And fixed a TPS fault. New rear tyres All less than 3k miles ago. Could do with an oil change about now i think. Body has stone ships on it, small dent to the pass door, slight lacr peel on wing and mirror, scrape to mirror. Inside new mats would be good, wear on drivers seat edge. Everything else is tip top Runs fine, turbos work, no smoke, Think that should cover most things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 For anyone thats interested, it still has its label on the seat belts showing an e4, for anyone that wants to import it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
