EDIT: over £5,500 worth of parts!!

 

one of the hardest threads ive had to post :(

 

fact is, the cars been in a garage having its mods done for the last 18 months :( The mechanics a mate of mine, who said he will charge me a cheap price if he can do it as a side line. Partly my fault too as i kept bombarding him with new parts :D The work he's done is immacualte, although his perfection is his downfall as he tends to start a job and then fix something else along the way - fine by me though :D

 

 

Anything in BOLD is brand new (unless otherwise stated) and in the process of being fitted - meaning the car has not been driven since fitting. I know for a fact there is stuff missing from that list, but i will update is as i remember. the prices are rough estimates from the top of my head. where possible i have been as accurate as i can but i dont have all the receipts with me :)

The car is currently declared SORN with the DVLA so has no tax or mot. I'll make sure its mot'd before it goes and we can come to an arrangement on tax if needs be.

 

I have a full service history with the car and it will be serviced once more before i sell it.

 

The mileage is on 113,000 miles. I've owned her for just over 3 years and the only problem i had was a dirty gearbox sensor. which got cleaned, flushed, new fluid in and all good since then.

 

Both Turbos were rebuilt by Abbey Motorsports in December 2001 (approx 86,000 miles). The cambelt and fanbe;t were changed by Whifbitz in December 2006 (110,000 miles).

 

She drives like a dream, probably even better after the running gear has been worked on, but i would suggest a geo setup to make it perfect.

 

Bodywork is fairly good, no scratches etc, but there is a bit of rust on the bottom left corner of the tailgate glass, and a bit by the passenger side door sill.

 

Interior is in good condition with no tears or scratches.

 

Its taken me 6 months to finally write this thread but it has to be done :(

 

im looking for £7,999 ono on this one. If you take away the amount on parts and labour it makes it a bargain (in my eyes anyway).

 

All parts were bought from either forum traders or forum members.

 

 

Thanks for looking.

Fancy a change mate. its just sitting there taking up money and not being used. i'd rather someone can use it and appreciate it. i'll be buying another one next year, but its going to remain standard. thats the plan anyway.

 

Sweet. Glad you're not leaving the MKIV. Are you free Tuesday? I'm going to get my car mapped so if you fancy a trip, come along...

Those Fox RS5's are 19" and as far as I know they didn't make them any other size than 8J, which is really too small for a TT. I used to have them, and I really want them again but can't get them wide enough for my car.

 

 

edit.....saying that....just found them 9J !! so am guessing you have 8J fronts and 9J rear
