Hi there, i still have my 1.6 16v x16xe car sat on my parents drive, and it looks like its time to shift it as i have a new car now and want some cash to get that tuned by Dave @ Vsport. My car basically just kept failing on emisions test and i needed a new car to get to work etc. I had spent £700+ on it trying to get it to pass. It had, new cat, water pump, plugs, leads, fuel filter, ecotek valve, air filter, timing belt and loadsother things done to it to try and get the emisions down.. Anyways im looking at selling the car as a whole for £350 if anyone is interested let me know, it has loads of other mods, such as lowered 30mm combat rear bumper and skirts, Velos Torque tube fitted, V6 brakes, Full GSI interior, Custom BUilt Digi Dash, Opel Grill (sprayed Black), colourcoded all round, smoothed scuttle.. too much to list and i know id get more for part but my dad wants it off the drive... let me know if i should sell for £350 or split it for more..
If anyone fancies making an offer get in touch, you could make more selling it for parts your self if you wanted, cheers
Oh car covered 86.000 miles and engine 30,000 before conversion!
Cheers

nope, just on the emissions test, was really high and i could never get to fixing it, cause the mot ran out and i needed a car to get to work. Could be gasket or stuck valve or something. Tried loads of different ecus etc, but it still overfuelled... probably something simple but i dont have the money to try and fix it anymore, plus it takes up space.

yeah it drives ok and runs ok, just has a misfire at idle which is why it was overfuelling on MOT emissions test.. I had spent £750+ trying to get it through the mot so i had almost rebuilt the engine, other than seeing if it was the gasket on its way out, or a stuck valve or something like that i had everything else done... It was a shame cause i spent so much time on it..

Cheers bud. I know its worth more in parts - but to be honest i would like to have the whole car go in one go as i just dont have the time to strip it down. And if the person who buys it sells it for parts then so be it. Im after £350 cause thats how much Dave at Vsport quoted me to have my new car tuned on his rolling road.
