Assome of you know after the rolling road day
i waS leaving to go to ireland to look at some rs cars
well after a 6hr ferry trip and a 1 hr drive in a car
transporter we finally arrived in county antrim
northern ireland. any way to cut a long story short
we came across a rsi REG A22 XBB in white.
This car had been in ireland for about 18mnths
previously residing in yorkshire but only shown at the 95
nat day and 1 show at cumbria before being lost.
Any way the car was only ever taxed for its 1st year of
life and only mot twice.The mileage on the car is a genuine
1900mls.So it is now going to be my winter project
to clean it up (not restore)and get it ready to show
in the 2004 season,as i am relativley new to the rsi
scene any help would be greatly appreciated.
Iam sure mr alan cox will post some photos of the car soon
for you to see.So that is my winter taken care of
see you all soon

 

Hi Kev, im pleased its gone to a good home, i look forward to comming & looking @ it

 

From what i have heard - its top drawer stuff

how many awards with it this year ....... - more than the cossie me thinks

roll on the shows

I know ur new car well, I seen it at our regional show over here in northern ireland both this year and last year. It is as was said top drawer stuff and will require very little cleaning as it was very well looked after by it's last owner.
Anyhow best of luck with the car and i hope to see it again soon!!

Arfur.

P.S As far as i'm aware LEV632Y is for sale as well.

 

Yes you are quite right the car has been well
looked after,.But i am sorry to say that i am an
extremley fussy person, so all the underseal that is
on the car has got to come off.That is going to be a
long job. Imust also say how well we were looked
after in ireland as it was my first trip over the water
and everybody very helpful, thankyou.
cheers

 

If any body is interested in lev,let me know
as we looked around it, i can also arrange
collection and delivery for you anywhere in uk.

 

Those look minty mint

 

they are white and grey car's - no mint ones there !!!!

 

i was being polite, I KNOW red ones are the only true mint 16i's

 

Aye you tell em

 

Whattt??????? sunrust red

 

 

better than Woman's White

 

Rather have white than sunrust

 

kev it looks great well done m8,looks like im going to have a busy winter aswell now lol.

 

Wow, that really is one of a kind, bet it even smells new!! Wonder what the story is behind it though, because if I brought a brad new RSi, I would definately use it and stick some miles on it!!! Nice a few weren't though! Thats a true gem, very nice mate and well done.

I'd personally leave the underseal though, personally I think they look funny with painted under arches, but thats personnel preference i suppose! Very nice well done

 

white - are the best colour for the rsi,as red looks as if its faded.

jason - your going to be a VERY busy boy then !!!!

na - if your going to show it,gotta be colour coded underneath the whel arches

 

I think caspian blue is the best colour by far lol

 

you do - eh !!!

there was none of them at the RR day - you could have been on your own then !!!

so we will have red / white and blue rsi's showing next year

 

will be good to see more i was geting bored on my own,i hope you will help me spot things wrong next year.

 

on your own !!! - there will be a few 16i's out next year !!! - busy boys over the winter..................

 

it will be good to have more in concours even if i lose,i was geting bored on my own.

 

lose - just gotta know where to look / clean , etc-etc.

make it more of a fun weekend now - having to earn your place,in the hall of fame !!

 

got to go now m8,get kids to bed speak to you soon.

 

yep your dead right m8.

 

better get buftying then - nice and clean ,and ready for action.................

roll on the 1st show of the year .............. - think its april 18th @ santa pod

 

Jason, i look forward to the shows and having a
laugh with you, because all it is is a fun weekend.
And dont get to worried i have seen swp and i know
i am in for some stiff competition.Ididnt intend to
buy a 1600i but how could i let this car slip away.
Iam glad to be out of the cossie scene because no
body is interested in helping anybody else but with
the 1600i brigade it is totally different.
Anyway must go now got work to do
happy cleaning

 

cool,

looks as if its going to be a TOP year again................ - roll on NAT DAY !!!!

 

Excellent find Kev - should be a nice car - and nice to meet you.

 

you should see the size of the JCB - to find that !!!!

gotta me the lowest millage RSI left in the country.

 

How much is LEV up for sale at and what mileage, history etc does it have?

 

LEV was restored by Mr F to a very exceptional standard has only covered approx 200 miles since it was brought over to ireland, can't remember the exact mileage though. An ad has been placed in rallye news with prices phone numbers if anyone has a copy at hand, i'm in work or i'd put the info up for you!!

 

matt,

if you want LEV - give me a pm,will give you KEV's phone number - has he saw LEV at the weekend,he could tell you more about it.

by the way - he had the grey rsi at the rr day on saturday - the one with 88 bhp !!!

 

Cant you leep anything quiet it was a faultyu read
out they saud!!!!!!

 

soz kev - but it was one rapid 88 bhp motor on the road - on the way up to jamsport..............

once you got the old gal wound up - thrashing the nuts out of it !!!!

 

Kev you should be glad cause when you first started it on 3 cylinders you had no more than 8bhp - top end reasult i'd say

 

Anyway as Paul wrote dont matter what the rollers showed if we all nailed it down the road together there would be no definate leader as everybody no doubt proved on the drive home

Bring on next year and more power

 

soo true, who needs a power reading when we were all hitting 120mph down the motorway.
