Fancy something abit different and rare?
278bhp with working 4x4, loads of mods...
Would part ex/swap for a 2wd Saph Cossie, or something of similar performance.
I was offered £4500 for it recently but didnt want to sell at the time!
To find one in this condition with working 4x4 is near impossible, its a very rare colour too that was pretty much only on the late M reg cars.
Was resprayed about 2 years ago by last owner.

Owners is about 7 or 8 IIRC, I know the last owner, the one before that was Gavin Wallace who owns Wallace Performance, before that was a bloke that had it for afew months, and the two people prior to that were well known on MIG/Cavweb, so its had a very good and cared for history.
Sadly at Wallace Perf the service history was lost, its only done 90k miles though and have nearly all MOTS to prove.
MOT due April, 5 months tax
This is the site that the owner built to document it while he owned it in 2002

The video was posted on a different forum that he uses ![Raz](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
As for the ecotec, yes it was the spark plug cover!
The later cars had Ecotec covers to match the new at the time Ecotec engine that was being released with the facelift SRI's etc

Have you still got the std Cav turbo wheels and what price are you after for it?
I notice you said 4.5k. Are you still after that or you dropping it??

I said I was offered 4.5 but turned it down, I posted it up as a guide mainly.
It was up for sale afew months ago for 5k though.
Im lucky to be in the position where i dont HAVE to sell it, ie if I get a good price then Ill be happy, if not then Ill be happy to keep it and enjoy it
