Default 24v V6 powered Saph Cosworth (Radiant Red) SALE / SWAP *WHY*

OK, I'm not 100% Sure, but i'm seriously tempted to just forget about modified cars and just get something standard, quite quick, and that i dont need to throw money at and modify! I'm thinking along the lines of an MR2 Turbo or a 200SX or similar. If you have a car you think i'd be interested in (even if you dont want mine) let me know.
At the moment I'm open to offers, but be assured this is not a 1K shitbox it's in better condition that 90% of saph cossies, (it sbloody well should be after the ammount of money i've spent on it... lol) runs like a dream, and has pretty damn good power especially around town, loads of torque from the V6. Oh, insurance is cheaper than a 2.0YB too


Engine / Transmission -

2.9L 24v Cosworth V6 (BOA)
Motorsport Developments Evolution Chip w/Closed Loop Lambda
Custom Powerflow Exhaust (V. Loud but passes trackday noise regs)
MT75 2WD Gearbox w/ B&M Quickshift
7" Rear Diff
N.B. Nitrous in the Picture is no longer fitted, was TOOOO expensive


Suspension -

Gaz Coilovers (250lb front 150lb rear)
Polybushed Front End
R&B Motorsport De-Camber Kit
ZOO Uprated Steering Arms
28mm Cosworth ARB



Brakes -

2WD Cosworth Front
4x4 Cosworth Rear

Wheels & Tyres -

EscCos 16" Alloys
215/40/16 GoodYear Eagle F1s 2x BRAND NEW 2x very low mileage in VGC



ICE -

Sony Headunit w/ 10CD Changer
2 sets of components + Rear 6x9s in shelf
All amped + spare amp in boot for sub

Interior -

Late spec 4x4
Dark Cloth Recaros, black door cards & carpet, latespec dash etc. etc.
Clock / AWS Display replaced with 4x 52mm Gauges
Aftermarket Digital Revcounter





Alarm / Imobiliser

Bodywork -

Radiant Red Late Spec Saph.
Respray <1k ago, bodywork immaculate, no dents, rust etc.



Boring Bits :-

1992 K Plate
4 Owners
Mileage is unknown, but every part of the car except the shell has been replaced at some point in the car's life. Engine mileage unknown but well serviced and runs perfect
6 Months Tax
6 Months MOT
Not got full history, i'm useless at keeping receipts, but got most of the important ones (which make me cry when i add em up)

Notes -
This Car is registered as a 2.0 GLSi on the logbook. However everything on the car is either 2WD cosworth, 4x4 Cosworth or Aftermarket uprated, only thing the same is the shell! (and thats been resprayed! lol)

For more Pics, check my Photobucket account, theres loads of pics of the car since i've owned it. No good quality pics since the respray tho, cept fopr the RSOC ND 05 pics

For anyone that doesn't know this car, it's a beauty. I was lucky enough to have a passenger ride in it and was very impressed, torquey, smooth and very quick

Sorry to see you selling it Jim. Looks like its just about finished now.

However, can highly recommend the car. Looks great, sounds great, and is quick as well.
