1991 SWB Slicktop Auto Twin Turbo - Cherry Red
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

What did you do to your zed today?
Finally got the zed up on ramps and tightened the squeeling belt that's been driving me mad since i bought it - i've only done 2k in 3 years so it's not bothered me that much till now :D haha
-
So Many Great Members Gone
I'm still alive and kicking and still driving my Zed :rofl: Just i've moved jobs which means I never have time to spend time on the zed any more - I haven't attended a meet in years now basically because i'm doing DIY every weekend these days (how middle aged is that lol)

My SWB Zed...
Great work mate, it took me over 10 attempts before I even got my V8 driving vaguely normally - much easier with a carb than mapping so i don't envy you! :)
-
And speaking of terrible-fitting upholstery...
He owns both, i think the Dino is his over kit car but that was done from a kit - this is his own doing. I can't get my head round why you would put that much effort in then not get someone to finish it off properly like Mondo for the interior and Allan for the body and paintwork
-
And speaking of terrible-fitting upholstery...
It's sad really because if he'd put another couple of months in flatting it off and recasting the shell in fresh fibreglass it would actually be alright but he's rushed it. It's a twin turbo Audi V8 with his own mapping and sound lovely although i'd have gone merc V12 for the sound

And speaking of terrible-fitting upholstery...
Reminds me of this chap on the kit car replica builder's forum - bless him he's tried but the finish is absolutely dreadful

BMW I8 who has seen one?
I LOVED the sagaris but the tuscan at the time was the first of the next generation of TVRs that i saw when i was younger and i always had a massive soft spot for it - it's on my list of dream cars for the garage :) It sounds very much like a rough raw V6 but with the leccy whine it has a really individual sound to it! Ahh the cerbera, i love all TVRs - the interior of the cerbera was always one of my favourites
