Cheap scruffy VX car


EFA

Recommended Posts

 

 

1998 VX HPC INJECTION. APPROX 12,000 miles from new (information provided by the owner) In need of some TLC, I had the following car at my house for a couple of days, but its now been returned to its owner John Yates in Horsham W.Sussex area.

 

You can contact him on 01403 731620 or 07813641643

 

You will need to be spanner friendly if you want this car. (It drives OK, but really needs freshening up.) Owner paid £14,250 for it in October 2000, and since then it has had a full engine rebuild WHICH COST £3000.

 

1998 - Factory built

Original Owner - Mithrel Racing at Goodwood

2.0 16v on injection - kodified to about 190bhp (superchip, cams, cossie bolts etc)

Dry Sump (Caterham)

Cat exhaust (rear exit)

Big brakes

VX race adj. Bilstein dampers 2.25" ID

13" wheels with Yoko A001 tyres

FIA bar

Plumbed in fire ext.

Racetech gauges and Stack prak recall tacho.

Leather S Type (96 on) seats

Black Pack

Full weather gear

Std 5 speed box

LSD

Honeycombe floor

 

 

The owner is looking for arond £11,750, but I think he's quite desparate. Less (I think in the region of £11,000 would almost certainly get it.

 

To make it pretty it needs:

 

4 wings, Nose, respray, dash panel and knee trim panels, at the very least. The motor is probably good for 220-230bhp if you bolt on some Jenvey TB's and a new ECU.

 

I'm not on commission, just the guy did me a favor so I'm returning it.

I dont have any photo's of the car. Assume its scruffy but not completely knackered. The owner is in Horsham so its not really any closer to you.

 

Soemone is looking at it to,morrow, and if not sold its going back to Horsham. In this case I'll post the owners details here.
