the car is approx 350-375bhp, it peaks at 2 bar and holds 1.7

Included in the sale

Spare T5 gearbox
Koni adjustable suspension with -25mm lowering springs (not fitted)
Spare bumper
2 sets of skirts (skirts need fitting)

Recently undertaken

Heater matrix changed
New fuel hoses & banjo's

New Clutch cable

Gearbox oil changed
New valve stem seals in head

What needs doing

New speedo cable,
ideally a respary as the paint is not great
syncros's on 3rd & 4th need to be resolved (although still drives fine, i've got used to it), but i'm chucking in the spare T5 gearbox
bumper cracked, but i have a replacement included in the sale
ABS light on, i thinks its a sensor on rear near side that needs cleaning replaced

ideally it needs a turbo heat shield too

for those that are interested please read the resto on https://passionford.com/forum/restorations-rebuilds-and-projects/211549-2wd-cosworth-rebuild-stood-for-11-years-she-s-alive.html

in brief: the car has 6 previous owners and has been stood for 11 years before i bought it.
the previous owner was going to rally it; the inside of the car has been painted white (apparently its rally standards to have them white) that's as far as the last guy got. you can't see the white obviously as the interior has been put back in.

the car is 100% solid underneath, your welcome to come and inspect it, i can use a ramp if need be to show you, the car has only covered 55k

the car has seen paint before and some bodywork but it is solid

£3300 with standard wheels, £3650 with Escort Cossie rims, car based in swindon, wilts

remember this is a running car with tax and mot and is approx 350-375bhp

i guess this car would suit someone who could respray it cheaply. I've bound to have forgotten something so PM me if your are genuinely interested

thanks
Matt

i am open to sensible offers, but if i dont get what i want i will break the car...although it would kill me to do that!

i would consider taking off the wheels and replacing them with the standard Lattice wheels for less
