cant believe im doing this but after much soul searching i have decided that having this in the garage is a waste as it never gets used and i could buy a few other toys with the money.ill start with the bad points.when i got it it was stolen recovered so i think its recorded as a cat d,i have never hpi'd it as to me that fact pailed in comparison to how standard and straight it was,there was no damage to the car whatsoever except the interior was missing,whoever took the car had a key as the alarm was still wired in and working and there was no lock damage.since i bought it 2 1/2 years ago i have transformed it from a standard flint grey sapph to a 335 bhp smokestone blue feature car.it was photographed for fast ford last month so will be in 1 of the upcoming issues.
the suspension is adjustable and has never been set up with corner weights etc,but i have enquired and it should take no more than 2 hours to do from the likes of a.g motorsport.

wheels are compomotive mo,i have 5,the spare is damaged but useable with a matching tyre,i bought the set that way and the rear n/s wheel is a little kerbed but not really noticeable,the tyres are 215/35/18 yokahama parada spec 2 tyres.
i have spent about 17k on this car not to mention the favours,freebies and hard work put in by myself to get it how it is,the speedo reads 35k,whether thats correct i dont know,but going by the condition of the car it could be as it wore all of its original paint before it was bare metalled for painting.it has not had any welding and there were no sdigns of crash damage.i have done 3100 iles in it since i bought it,half the fun is building it.i want £9000 for it,bit steep you might think but try building 1 as good with the same spec and you will know this is cheap.if it doesnt sell i might consider breaking it,although this would really break my heart.im not open to offers but i may part ex for a tidy 88 spec s2 in mercury grey.
there are probably a few things i have forgotten about.the private plate is not included,it has 10 months mot and 4 months tax,i have all the receipts for all the parts i have bought,i have done almost all of the work myself except the paint and im very fussy.all the parts on my car are brand new,(genuine ford where available),powdercoated or have done less than 1000 miles so are still like new,that includes the turbo,suspension underside resto etc.i dont have time for timewasters so please dont try.p.m me with any questions,thanks,lee
