headunit is not included in the sale as i've only just bought it

the idle valve is unplugged due to sticking at 1200rpm once car is warmed up but it idles at 800rpm with it unplugged so i havent been in a hurry to replace it

the car has had a very light bump when it was owned by a former keeper as there is a very small crease on the offside inner wing and the strip of metal that goes under the headlights and grille is not the original on (the only reason i know this is because when you take the headlights out you can see the original color is red, i'll take some pics of the crease and the strip tomorrow and post them)

there is a tiny bit of rust on both rear arches and a few little dings and scratches around the car (you need to be inspecting it closely to see them)

here's some pictures, i'll get some more of the engine bay, boot and more of the outside and inside tomorrow when i go to the lockup

























i know that the wheels are not to everyone's taste but i like them, however there is a choice of wheels for the buyer, either the BK racing ones you see in all those pics or these 17" katana's ...



i'll get some more pics tomorrow and post them asap.

£3800 NO OFFERS! IF IT DOESNT SELL FOR £3800 I WILL PROBABLY BREAK IT FOR PARTS.

Garsy™

biglee

Garsy™

i won't be able to bring myself to do it but my borther says he'll do it for me lol

we've just worked out that it should fetch at least 5k in parts so watch this space lol

biglee

no way....toooooooo good to take to bits.....

Garsy™

tell me about it mate

zetec115

Is this a reliable runner? What sort of power is it producing? Any whining?

PM me with details if you like

Garsy™

yes it's a reliable runner mate, but i'm a "better safe than sorry" nut anyway so all the work that has been done was only done for peace of mind. there's no whining and the engine is quiet and smooth. the last time it was rolling roaded it saw 319bhp but that was before the RS500 intercooler was fitted so i estimate around 330bhp now...

PM sent with my phone number if you require anymore info.

Rallye Chick

Mr Brannen

steventoon

from the pics, I'd guess Lemington / East Denton

Mr Brannen

does look like West Denton,was thinkin that myself,I only live in Fenham and have never seen the car

Garsy™

yes it is west denton mate, and i probably drive it once every 2-3 weeks due to my work van, wifes car and my diesel tractor i use to potter about in, thats why it's hardly seen. whereabouts in fenham cos spookily enough thats where my lock up is which it's kept in....

Mr Brannen

Theres one over this way,,isnt yours is it,sure the bloke has just bought that one from Blyth though

Mr Brannen

Hold on a minute, that orange peugot looks familiar,that is where I thought isnt it, knew those houses looked familiar

Garsy™

yes mate thats mine, and cheers for editing the exact location, cant trust anyone these days

steventoon

I'm looking forward to visiting home again soon ! Used to go to school at West Denton and worked at the West End nick for a while.

Garsy™

how old are you mate? me and my wife went to west denton, and i was in the west end nick the other day after a huge alsation at a customers house mistook me for a giant bit of steak and decided to have a chew on my arm and leg horrible mutt's been put down now though and the bloke is gettin prosecuted. police have been very helpfull there even got the criminal injuries people to contact me about a compen claim quids in for a few puncture marks and some bruising will do me fine

steventoon

I'm 35 mate, I left in 1988, lived in Chapel park all of my life before moving to Exeter.
I have to say some of the best fun I have had was working from the West End nick at the height of the twocs. I think its a lot quiter around there now.

Garsy™

can you remember a half cast lass called kelley lashley? she's my wife and the same age as you. her brothers are danny and nathan lashley and they were the only black kids who lived in this area lol.

yeh mate, the west end is alot quieter now, gone are the days of the harrisons and the elswick twoc squad lol it's a much more peacefull place now

steventoon

names dont ring a bell mate, the lads from denton i used to know were david halliwell, micky burns, andy burns and a few more i've forgotten!

kevperth

IS THIS STILL FOR SALE?

Garsy™

there's a chap coming to view it tomorrow mate, and if he doesnt buy it it's getting broke on sunday. already got the interior, engine and alot of the engine mods sold which is gonna give me nigh on 3k.

i've been messed about so much with people who ring, arrange to come and don't bother turning up that this lad coming tomorrow is the last person who i am going to let view it (if he turns up)

i'll be able to let you know by tomorrow night whats happening.

kevperth

thats the problem with the net .too many dreamers

zetec115

Pity

But if you've got 3k already then makes sense suppose.

I couldn't pay for a flight over without seeing the other pics I asked about. Stupid Irish sea

Garsy™

sick of dreamers and timewasters who are full of promises on the phone/net.

now breaking for spares.

this post can be locked and i'll get a post up in parts section.

if anyone wants anything specific, PM for a price.

all parts available, first come first served.

s1robinb

Is this still for sale ? Im not a dreamer or time waster chap just so you know bud!

Garsy™

well it's still in one piece, but it's getting stripped tomorrow cos it's my last day off work for 10 days so i have to do it tomorrow to get the parts off.

the only thing that would stop that would be a deposit through paypal.

out of the 50+ people who have been interested in it only 2 have came to view. one lad was only 19 and his dad wouldnt let him pay 4k insurance and the other was an idiot!

steve_s

is the car still for sale

§kitz.®

Damn,
