Hi.

 

Time to sell up.

Spent over 10k on my car in the last 2 years.

Brand new engine, all parts also.

Interior re-newed ect.

 

A lot of you have seen my progress and knock backs and now with a knock on a brand new bottom end, and lots of work... it's really taken the piss.

Just had enough of it eating money.

It's just been run in by 1500 miles, new gt525 turbos as well from Z1.

 

Any offers please PM me.

I do not have the skill, time, money or interest to fix it anymore.

I'm sure it's an easy fix for somebody with all the knowledge and tools.

The engine is 88mm wiseco pistons, acl bearings and full divorced downpipe decat.

 

I have made it into a stunning car and it gets lots of attention.

Thanks.

am I being obtuse or is there no price ?

 

I think the consensus is at the moment to get to the problem so he can resolve it and keep it....but I could be wrong!

I just googled bottom end knock acl bearings, there seems a lot of people with knocks pretty soon after rebuilds there not zeds but still...

 

Ive always used ACL bearings with no probs ever...very puzzling this fresh bottom end going tits up so early

  • 2 weeks later...

breaking it would be the best way mate, you should be able to recoup some of the lost cash

I would but I have no where to keep it.

It's got to go unfortunatley before tax and mot runs out.

 

is there no way you can keep it till you can afford to get it fix looks nice car and with all the work you have done

If you sell her I will drive to your house and beat you with a piece of Halibut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I would have used COD but they are a dwindling species now due to over fishing and all that!)

 

So don't you dare sell her, or a short fat hairy git with a wet fish will come round, knock on your door and B**tch slap you with a piece of Halibut till you scream "MUMMY!"......

So there..........

 

You tempted to keep her????

lol.....

 

I will also offer any help I can as a tea, coffee maker or spanner passer for you and Terry......

Watching my Z disintegrate on my driveway!!!

It is mint but hey.... :/

 

I got offered a slk 230 px tonight from Gumtree the way the zed is... not got the money to even do that, just to sell that after.

Lol Veilside.

If I could store her somewhere covered up with no tax/insurance in a few weeks I could save, but I don't know anybody.

Cmon guys, there must be someone close that can let him store the car, if you were closer you could store it in my driveway mate, but im like 350 miles away :(

some one must live near you with a little bit of space to put it for a few weeks

I'm waiting for a reply from Ant.

 

very kind of you if you can help the guy. nothing worse than when you car it down and out and you feel you have to get rid of it.

that's nuts mate some one will come a long whip the engine out in less than a day fix it and have in back in a few days later and have a very nice car mate you need to get this sorted its to much off a loss

I don't have the resources or money.

It's got to go I'm afraid... otherwise I can see it getting towed away by the council in a few months for no tax ect ect

Hi Ant, if you need some off road parking you can put it on my drive, until you get sorted, I live in Allhallows.

Paul, not sure how long for.

Would it be safe?

Don't want to take the piss but looking at a year or so with trying to set this business up.

 

Plus don't want you knicking bits loool jokes ;)

Hi Ant, sorry but 1 year or more is too long, thought you was looking for something short term, 2 or 3 months would not be a problem.

If you cant sell it and want to trailer it 250 miles to my place, you are welcome, I've got plenty of room,( its like an NCP car park here anyway) and time is not an issue.

 

Rather that than let the bloody council take it
