Hi, I bought this on 19/10/2015 from a guy who bought it on 11/05/2015 who said he’d done a lot of miles. No kidding
Think it had about 89000 on it when I bought it. It came with the timing belt kit and water pump in with the price of £1850 … which was nice. I needed to do some welding on the 4 jacking points … these cars are heavy and I hate seeing people use them too often to lift the car. I also got around to fitting the timing belt,water pump,fitted rev3 lifters (all), spark plugs, air filter, 4 new quality tyres ( the ones on it I’m sure were made of plastic
, almost all the pulleys (including the harmonic) as someone had forgotten to replace the engine side cover
which shortened the life of the bearings. Fitted a cat from a shogun and modded the flanges (saved a fortune). Replaced a wheel bearing which did NOT want to come out without a lot of “persuasion” . I put verniers on the cams and found they were in mint condition. The timing belt was not looking too clever and the tensioner pulley had been fitted upside down … I kid you not. YET it still ran perfectly. It starts and fires up better than any car I’ve owned … ie on the first rev of the starter and runs sweet as a nut. I did a lot of searching about for parts when needed and saved a fortune. I even bought stuff from the Ukraine
The handling is superb and love powering around corners. Like it so much I changed the number plate to P22 GTO as a treat. I bought it as a winter car but like the odd summer spin … as you do. My other daily is an S2000 so I have a nice “choice”. I’m even contemplating a full respray to bring it back to full glory. The big scratch is still there under the rear spoiler
soon to be attended to. These cars have got street presence especially when lowered 40mm
