Selling my 1991 SWB Slicktop in Cherry Red, Twin Turbo, Automatic

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE GOOD PARTS

 

• Genuine 99 spec rear lights fitted
  
• Meister R coilovers fitted all round
  
• Interior panels and seats retrimmed in red connoly leather hide in good conditions
  
• Polished stainless cat back exhaust
  
• Series two climate control fitted
  
• No smoke from the turbos and runs perfectly
  
• Low mileage and totally stock engine, cats still attached and not track driven
  
• Comes with premium halfords car cover
  
• Rare Slicktop SWB
  
• Converted to MPH and running a hicas eliminator
  

 

THE BAD PARTS

 

• Registered cat 'C'
  
• Damage to top corner of rear bumper (needs new rear driver side bracket to clamp to bodywork), small dent/scratch on nearside door (see next post)
  
• Small kerb mark to front wheel
  

 

Summary

 

If the car were mint condition throughout without the cat 'C' status I would be asking nearer £4500 but as it is cat 'c' and there is work to do to this car i'm asking £3200 for a nice, relatively original SWB Slicktop that drives great. Insurance through a classic policy comes out at £235 a year with mods declared for a 34 year old living in the midlands.

 

It's then up to the new owner if they want to spend the money and restore it back to mint condition and get the car straight on the front or as i've done just drive and enjoy it for what it is.

 

If it doesn't sell this time, then i'll do the work to get it straight and tidy up the scratches, realign the panels and put it up for sale for a higher price later this year.

 

The car will come with 12 MOT and be ready to drive away.

 

Truly sad to let it go but with no garage I can't keep it in good condition and i'm just not getting the chance to drive it any more

 

Car is priced to sell at

 

£3200

...and keeping it :)

 

It's been up for sale for a fair while now and i've not had a decent offer, now i've changed the bonnet/etc the car looks great so I think he's staying - i'll just have to build a garage..... :rofl:

 

Can you close this thread please mods?

Is that a carbon fibre bonnet youre replacing and if so would you be looking to sell it?

No buddy it was a stock gunmetal grey bonnet with aerocatches but I swapped that and the nose panel with the guy for his bonnet and nosepanel
