Default 2wd 1989 Saph 450BHP!!

Provisionally I have for sale my 450bhp Moonstone Blue 2wd Sapphire Cosworth that I’ve owned for nearly 3 years. Need to get a hole in the exhaust sorted and sort the starter motor out which broke this weekend, but would like to get interest in the car as it will be sorted within the next week or 2.

Genuine reason for sale, don’t get the use anymore as I have a work van. It had a full engine rebuild 104,000 miles at a cost of £9000 by the previous owner (Will list the spec below), The car has GAZ Coilovers, it has been polybushed and has a ZF 2 way LSD fitted by Harvey Gibbs. It has a 4x4 bonnet and RS500 style front splitter. The private plate is included in the sale. It has a raven cloth interior that is in good condition slight hole on the drivers side bolster, it’s fitted with a non standard steering wheel and gear knob (momo and omp), it has a cd/tuner and front component speakers.

I have a folder full of history including tax discs and mots, I have a rolling road print out for 450bhp. The car has done just under 113000 miles. Always run on silkoene pro s 10/50 since I have owned with regular oil changes. Mot due in July 2012 and Tax in May 2012. Overall condition very good.

Being honest now a few points I would like to make I have got a brand new rs500 splitter to go on as the other one was scuffed badly but the bumper needs spraying where the old one was attached. Also needs a small bit of welding to jacking points at front as both are damaged. I have priced the car taking these into consideration.

Corten Miller Engine Spec:
200 long studded block
CP Low comp pistons (7.5:1)
shot penned rods and crank
Cosmetic head gasket
Head skimmed with new valves
New oil and water pump
Cams BD8 exhaust BD12 inlet
T38 Turbo
Level 8 ecu
group a coil
Ford motorsport blue leads
Samco blue hoses
Siemens injectors
RS500 intercooler
Airtec Turbo cooler
Airtec Alloy radiator
Alloy swirl pot
Alloy header tank
Breather kit
alloy bottom pulley
Stainless steel exhaust
-31 actuator

Also has a few other bits that I can remember of my head which are:
GAZ Coilovers
Alloy front strut brace
Fully polybushed
ZF 2 way lsd
RS500 front splitter
4x4 bonnet
Boost and Oil pressure gauges in middle vent space

Since the above spec I have added the below which has all done less than 1000 miles.

Alcon 6 paddle clutch, flywheel skimmed
044 fuel pump, Fuel pump hardwired
18’ alloys
Big Red refurbed front calipers and new disks on rear and pads all round.
Fan wiring updated with fuses inline
K&N Group A filter
Siemens 83lbs
Cam cover powder coated orange

Think thats the lot, any questions feel free to ask, viewings welcome. Looking for £5500.

As above '89 and yes the plate comes with. R5COS that has been mentioned to me before but it's the way it's made and I've been told it wont make a difference. Doesn't effect the car in anyway.

It is 100% on the wrong way round and will effect how it works , It wont do any damage ,it simply just wont work correctly ( its a philloy item ) if im not mistaken



Hope this helps
