Muffleman Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 A good friend of mine is selling a Soarer 2.5 twin turbo. The car is in really good condition, but doesn't have much in the way of history. Shame really, as it's a lovely car. However, the lack of history would not put me off of the car because of who is selling it, so if you're interested PM me and I will explain who and give you his number. Believe the mileage to be genuine at 90km, or 56k in miles but it did have an oil leak when he bought it so it has a recon. engine. He has checked everything else and it's a straight car. Thought of it myself for to and from work, but have something else now. Will have 12 months MOT, probably 6 months tax and is located next to Gatwick Airport. Also has spanky new 17" Lexus alloys. One bad point is that someone shut the boot with something in it that dented the boot from the inside. One of the pics has my thumb next to it to show the size of the ding. Needs a damn good polish and some engine cleaning, but he's a spanners man, not a tart like me Think he's after £3k for it.

Simon K Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Hi there, Nice looking car, few questions though. What type of oil leak required a recon engine ? Did he do the install ? Where did the engine come from ? Just the block / head ? or the complete lot ?? Where in West Sussex is he ? Im based near Worthing. Would he be interested in a swap + cash ? I have a 2.5 SWB pajero. 77K, auto, runs on veg oil therefore cheap to run. Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethr Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 The "L" version of the Soarer TT also has a display in the dash (in place of the warning lights) which scrolls through the start-up checks -- engine, charging, ABS, lights, fuel, etc. (in English), shows remaining fuel in litres, and pops up an error message (in Japanese) if there's an error at any time, such as an engine/box/ABS fault or bulb failure.
