Default 480 Turbo 93 K reg paris blue £500 ONO

Has MOT till May IIRC - need to dig out paperwork, 8 prev owners, bought as a bit of an impulse buy last July, replaced oil/plugs/air filter planned to do up and keep, but need a track car, and this has just sat in barn from about a month after buying gathering dust.

Central locking disconnected as driver and passenger door locks were out of sync (unlocking one, locks the other), I have pair of Richmod ECU's for it, but when they are connected car tried to fire but doesn't, runs fine on standard ECU's, Richmod ECU's included

requires 2 front tyres, badly painted OS rear arch, feel free to ask questions, car is currently SORN

if no interest will break it.

mileage approx 68k

Just checked MOT out 7th Dec, battery is flat and can't find Jump leads,

car has done just over 67,000 miles.

need space, make offer, due to no MOT or tax will need to be trailered, no time or inclination to put money into sort as weather is improving and need to focus energy on getting a track car.

Looks nice, any chance of a picture under the hood?

It would be a shame to see this broken, it looked really smart in the eBay ad, it ended the day I sold my Celeb and I was seriously tempted to bid myself!

engine runs as sweet as a nut, but as they say, 'there are lies, damn lies and ebay adverts'

it could be a very nice car, but needs loving, and I want something to hoon round track.

I would have it off you, but I dont know where I would put it, nor do I have the money to make an offer...if the car was going to the scrapyard, and you really dont want it there or are interested in getting money for it, I would take it just to give it a home.

Good luck with the sale hehe (I hope I get a windfall soon)

compared to most bar the rear lights the structure seems sound, just lack motivation. Alex saw it last saturday when he collected interior
