My car is now for sale after owning it for the last 3 years. I have taken the car through 3 major makeovers resulting in 1 feature in Revs in 2001, a cover feature in Revs and ADDX in 2002 and the cover of Redline in 2003.
The car has 63,000 miles on the clock and the engine has done 40,000. The cam belt was changed 4,000 miles ago. When the engine conversion was completed the drop links were replaced, the front bushes and anti-roll bar bushes were updated to PowerFlex ones, the gearbox engine mount was uprated to a polyurethane.
The car has had almost £20,000 spent modifying it over the last 3 years.
The car comes with a spare set of 18" Dare V2 rims and spare set of tinted rear clusters.
For sale for £9,500

big eck -> At the time i could not fine a decent priced VTS engine but found a GTI one. They are exactly the same bar the little badge on the top of the engine so went for it.
Karnage Corsa -> The strange thing is they actually liked it. The colour was a bit bright (although that was probably made worse the fact they were fairly hung over).
After chatting to them i realised they are not against modding at all. yes they take a the piss about some of them but even i think half the stuff they take the piss out deserves it.
