    Hamilton Silver 1997 Galant VR4 Auto, St Albans

    Hamilton Silver 1997 Galant VR4
    YEAR: 1997
    COLOUR: Hamilton silver
    MILEAGE: 110000 miles
    tax.* EXPIRY DATE: 31/01/2011
    M.O.T. EXPIRY DATE: 23/03/2011
    PRICE: £1500
    CONTACT DETAILS: PM

    What Ive got for sale is a Hamilton silver Galant VR4 Type S, 5 speed tiptronic. The car is well known to the club as it was Mat (Orionn2O)'s car. So it has:

    All the usual, EW, RCL, electronic climate control, AYC, TCL etc.
    147000miles showing on the clock which equates to 115000miles.
    Toad CAT 1 alarm/imob with cert of installation.
    Angel eye conversion (see members articles) with de-oranged front indicators.
    Stainless de-cat (Cat in Boot)
    Dual outlet(vent to Atmos and vent to plumb back) dump valve
    RPW downpipes
    3" exhaust with 4.5" tailpipe
    uprated lash adjusters
    BBS Alloys ( but there are some black 16" team dynamics wheels with road legal tyres that could be purchased with the car (they used to be on it) if so desired)

    Other than that the car is pretty much standard, it has been regularly serviced by myself and all the paperwork is with the car. The turbos were replaced about 18months ago, front calipers 9months ago and all bottom arms replaced with genuine mitsi ones at some point this year. The car drives really well with no knocks or clunks whatsoever. The bodywork is in pretty good condition for its age, with the usual stone chips on the bonnet, but the one thing that lets it down is the drivers side rear arch which is starting to go (see pic below), but this is reflected in the price. As such its a cheap car to hopefuly aid in a quick sale.
    One final thing is that this is without a doubt the most economical vr4 ive ever been driving round in, 300 to a tank on the motorway or just below 250 round town.


    Any questions feel free to post or PM

    Haha, I thought that pic would appeal to you, far more useful in edgeworthstown than a VR4!

    Its been on ebay, as im sure you know, and just been constantly messed about.

    As this needs to go asap and there's no point it just sitting on my drive, the price has been dropped to £1500.

    So, any takers?
