    Car Description

    Car History
    It is with deep regret that im having to part with my car but a recent split up from my ex and now having to find a flat i really dont need a big car as i only have a little boy plus i cant afford to throw money at cars anymore so i offer it to you.

    Car is a 1998 model facelift model, drives fine but does suffer with the usual ticking. I have a guy doing a oil and filter service tomorrow with mobile 1 esp formula 5w-30 fully synthetic oil and Amsoil gearbox oil.

    Ayc seem great, all lights up when hard cornering etc, no warning lights on the dashboard, temperature sits on half way so no overheating problems.

    I have had the alloys refurbed (satin black) which cost me £200 because the wheels were in a right state when i had this car! so that had to be done.

    Modifications.
    TOAD Cat 1 Alarm System with Remote Engine Start

    17" Schneider Lightweight Alloy Wheels

    Bilstein Yellow Shock Absorbers with Lowered Springs

    Uprated Stainless Steel Downpipes

    Reverse parking sensors fitted with the display box on the dashboard

    Full Stainless Steel Exhaust System


    Swoosh Boost Gauge

    Electronic Boost Controller

    SARD R2D2 Dump Valve

    Other information.
    .

    Bad bits
    Right there are some bits i will mention

    Slight scrape on drivers side back arch and passenger side (not that bad)

    Small ding on drivers door

    Passenger side fog lamp mists up (even more in this cold weather but works fine)

    Front bumper passenger side bottom corner has a slight scrape

    Odd mark around the car that aint to serious

    I have had a quote to repair the above and i can get it done for £200 all in (but maybe i was quoted high)?

    If i was to mark this car out of 10 i would give it a 7 but with a little TLC it'll look amazing

    No rust on any arches or around the car!

    If the car is pearl white, u have been severely underquoted on any repaint work. It would cost more than 200 to merely paint the bumper.

    Good luck with the sale tho.

    No mate I work for jb trade sales and I've advertised the car on his eBay.

    I was quoted that so if it seems cheap becausevi know the guy, actually its my gaffers cousin who owns a spray shop. I'm sure he said the paint wont be cheap as its a 4 stage? anyways car will be sold as it is as I am throwing money at my flat instead.

    well I though I was quoted high lol but yeah £200 will get my car sorted. The guy has the pearl paint in his shop. I would get it done but a massive change in circumstances means i just can't afford to throw money at it although I've done the wheels and its just had an engine n gearbox service with fresh oils. I'm really fussy with cars and in all honesty mine is not that bad considering the age of it. A little tlc that's all is needed


    Edit: thanks Dave for the link mate. I was getting an error when loading the link I posted.
