Castle Combe hot hatch challenge.....anyone selling a car

[silverback mike]

Well.......I'm too much of an oaf, my lad is after a hot hatch preferably as near to entering as possible.

There is a saxo on eBay but that's in Norfolk which is a massive trek but I think is sold so thought I would ask fellow ph chums.

He's got about 3 grand for the car, the rest is for set up and grid fees

We've got a trailer so no need to be road legal...

Mike. I have a Clio 182 that I raced a couple of times in the CC Saloons, so it's caged, extinguisher fitted, cut off fitted, tow eyes etc and has already been through scrutineering at Combe a few times. I need more than £3k for it, but not a lot more. It's a good honest solid car with plenty of potential. I'm just off J14 of the M5, so let me know if you are interested.

Thanks Mark, much appreciated and close too. But I think the engine on the 182 is too large, the class he's aiming to be in is 1600 and under I think....

Mike I've got a quick Saxo racing car it's a stock hatch spec 1600 (I did a couple of races at Combe last year) I'm in Guildford.

[silverback mike]

Sounds just the job. If you could let me know some details I'll pass them on
Oh and he's on about £2750....I was upping his budget unknowingly as he needs a bit off a buffer and fair play to him wants to pay for it all himself. (I'm transportation!)

Do you have an advert for this at all??

[silverback mike]

Hi Mark. As I thought the 182 would put him in class A which isn't where he wants to be to start with but many thanks, appreciated.

Rallycross...I've sent a PM to you.

Hi. I haven't advertised it anywhere and it was just a speculative response to the OP. If you want to send me some contact details, I can provide more information or call you to discuss.

Hi
We've got a Mk2 Golf 16V race car for sale. It was the 2013 & 14 Production GTI championship winning car & has all the right suspension etc. Its my son's car & he wants about £4250 for it. We're in Salisbury if you wanted to look at it. It would be a great car for the Coombe hot hatches.
Cheers
Bryan

Hello Bryan. Many thanks but my lad is soon to be the new custodian of Rallycross's Saxo. 👍

[Ilovejapcrap]

Picture when he gets it then

[silverback mike]

Of course...sounds like a ph custard test challenge

[silverback mike]

Update as it's always nice to follow up. Here he is in said trackcar flat out on camp corner at Castle Combe today. Thanks to Craig who we bought it from. It's a cracker.
