I swapped this with someone for a Caddy about 8 years ago. I then Drove it around until the MOT ran out. It was pretty tatty matte black when I bought it and so I stripped it down and painted it (roller and rustoleum, which doesn't actually look too bad
). I was thinking about using it as a road legal track car but life got in the way and there it sat in my workshop. It has been kept completely dry the whole time. The metalwork is in pretty good nick. All key areas seem solid and rust free. There is just a little surface rust coming through in areas where he removed the sound deadening and primered it.The previous owner swapped the 1.8 8v for a 2ltr 16v from a Corrado. However this is running on motorbike carbs (Honda Goldwing from memory but i do have it written down). It has been completely stripped out. Has a custom rear strut brace, bucket seats, Race harness, Perspex side windows (front and back still glass). This thing was fast. I don’t know how much it weighs but it’s not much.
Any components removed by me are still with the car.
The engine bay wiring is a little untidy but the guy had been using it for over a year as a daily driver so it was clearly mechanically ok. That said it’s been sat for years and I don’t want to try to start it in case I damage it…..and the petrol is 8 years old and it has no battery. I assume it'll need at least new fuel/oil/timing belt? Thought I’d put this on here before Ebay as I’d rather it went to an enthusiast here even if it is for parts. I got a lot of info off this site when i had my first GT2 years ago. I’ve been debating whether to get it on the road again for the last year or so but don’t really have the time. I’m not in a rush to sell it atm. Feel free to make me an offer.
Clearly it will need trailering!!!
