The time has come to sell the C.
Owned for about 12 years, I've spent a small fortune on her but I rarely drive her anymore.
She's not been used as a daily since about 2011, just the occasional spin now and then as can be seen in Mot mileage.
2.0l 16v Moonlight blue with black leather interior
156150 miles
Work she's had done:
Gas flowed and head
Gas flowed & port matched inlet manifold
Gas flowed throttle body
Abf cams
Vernier cam pulley
Remapped at DG Autotech
New injectors (less then 4000 miles)
Stainless steel 4 branch downpipe
Miltec exhaust
G60 280mm front brakes
Mk4 rear brakes
Goodridge hoses
Green stuff pads
Borbet A 9j alloys with Goodyear eagle F1 rubber
Rolled front arches
HR adjustable coilovers
TT wiper conversion
De-locked door handles
90mm front splitter
Road legal pressed metal number plates
Heater matrix recently changed
Steering rack recently changed
3 relay headlight wiring loom fitted
Stealth shelf with infinity 6x9's
Uprated front speakers (I forget the brand)
Compact 10" wedge custom fit removable sub
3 vibe black box amps and capacitor
Hate to see her go but I just don't drive her and shes just sat there. Especially since I had a son 8 months ago and shes really not suitable. She was on a rolling road after the engine work was done, i cant find the paperwork but she was pulling 192bhp back in 2011.
The good bits:
Engine is spot on. Not pretty, but no problems
Spoiler works as it should
Good condition fog lights
Good condition headlights
Comes with loads of spare original parts:
- original mint tail lights
- original steering wheel
- spare clocks
- spare throttle body
- spare metering head
- original door handles
- bonnet bra
- cold start injectors
- Idle stabilization valve
- Airbox parts
- fuel lines
- cams
- engine sensors
- injectors
- g60 brake cylinder
- omp front strut brace
- badgeless grill
The bad bits:
Some rust on 2 arches
Rust bubbles under drivers side wing
Sunroof tilts but doesnt slide (never has in my ownership!)
Lacquer peeled patch on bonnet
Paint needs some attention
On my last trip to the car wash the exhaust came loose from the 4 branch so it's now extremely loud and not drivable. She starts etc but I don't want to drive it as it'll get very hot underneath and is a fire risk.
This is one of the big drivers to make me sell her. I understand it's a fairly simple fix but I'd need to get her towed to a ramp to get the exhaust fixed and its just money don't want to spend on a car I don't drive. (The golf r is my new money pit)
Looking for £2500
She's in Harold Wood, RM3
Will need to be towed away because of the exhaust. You can drive her but that's up to you and at your own risk.
Cant figure out how to upload pics so whatsapp me and I'll send them to you. 07712625227
