Mk1b 88 Coupe - Amazing condition - low miles,

Post by Ayrton »

****REDUCED****
NOW £2000 ovno

This is the best Mk1 I could find - no rust anywhere, low miles 72k.
I wanted a perfect car to then upgrade with new suspension, wheels, brakes etc etc
To start with it's an immaculately looked after car.
I'm the 3rd owner - 1st owner (for most of it's life) kept every receipt (even fuel!) and wrapped it in cotton wool in a carpetted garage.
Very thick file of invoices, service bills etc. etc.
It's had the bodywork (rear arches) professionally done 2 or 3 years ago.
I keep it garaged (on a SORN at the mo) and have done less than 1000 miles in it and all the following parts/mods were fitted within last 9 months (500ish miles).
It handles very well-
Koni adjustable SSK kit - the best for road & track
Fully polybushed everywhere.
Twosrus rear toe control arms.
Laser aligned to TRD/track settings - bit more castor/camber & a bit less toe in.
Enginewise it's standard apart form a Mongoose SS exhaust - nice sound but still quiet enough for all tracks. I have a 57i kit or the original airbox assembly - whichever you prefer.
MOT til Nov08.

ICE is pretty good too - Trick Kenwood head unit with ipod connector adaptor so you can control ipod from head unit. - Has G meter, stopwatch, graphics. Front speakers are new too.

My plan was to keep the car long term for occasional track use but plans change - I have a Rev3 turbo as well and I'm running out of space.

**Note the wheels are standard 14" teardrops - the Rotas in the pictures below have gone**

£2000ovno
& I'm still losing a lot on it.
You can buy an old nail for a lot less obviously but this really is probably one of the nicest ones left.

hold tight at that price. i noticed this on ebay and well worth the money imo. i paid 2k for mine a few years back which was ont he same mileage, immaculate but without the mods. however... nobody wants to buy mk1's unless they're cheap as chips, which is a shame :(

good luck with the sale!

bttt for the new year with new reduced price.
Wheels back to standard now.
So for £2k you get an immaculate standard car with any worn bits replaced/refreshed.
