Default MK3 Golf Colour Concept VR6

I am putting my car up for sale for no other reason than I get bored easily!

It's a 1997 P reg Colour Concept which means it comes with blue heated leather Recaros, electric windows, electric mirrors and an electric sunroof all of which are in perfect working order.

The best bit about this car, however, is that instead of the rather pedestrian 2.0 8valve most CC's come with this one has been converted to VR6 power!

The engine is an OBD2 unit from a Vento. The engine itself has done just over 120,000 miles now (the clocks from the donor car are the ones in the car) and is running spot on. Unfortunately I have no paperwork with the car but I was told that when the engine was transplanted it was treated to a full service. I would have no reason to disbelieve this as it runs sweet.

It also has an induction kit fitted (still have the airbox) and it has a de-cat pipe (still have the cat) leading to a twin DTM backbox. As you can imagine this car sounds gorgeous!

The car is running on height adjustable coilovers (very firm) and sits on a set of Merc rims running stretched 195/45/16s.

The bodywork is in very good condition with just slight stonechipping to the front which is to be expected on a vcar this age!

The car is taxed untill the end of January 2010 and mot'd untill 17th July 2010 so is ready to roll!

I am more interested in Pxs for anything interesting! Preferably Ford e.g. RS Turbo but almost anthing considered! Let me know what you've got!

Straight cash £2100 ono.

Seems thats the way things are at the moment! lol. It is a lovely car and I don't really have a reason to sell it. I'm just easily bored having had 14 cars in the last 18 months... It's an addiction!

Probably is, it just needs some bumper care stuff on the plastics, had to do this with my 16v gti, the whole lot was faded.

ANDYRACER I'd love it but insurance is to high.

XR2000STEVE I'll keep you posted.

In the mean time if anyone has a Series Landrover /90 or some sort of road legal off roader (if that isn't a contradiction in terms)....

Time to drag this back up!!

Due to buying another RS Turbo this is currently sitting around and I'd like the space back. I still don't NEED to sell it but would be useful to have some money to spend on my White s2.

I'll now take 1700 for it or I could do a deal on a zetec turbo or a zvh.
