In the time I've had the car since December 2011 it has had the following new parts fitted:
- Both driveshafts replaced
- Both front lower suspension arms replaced
- Front discs and Ferodo DS2500 pads
- Rear discs and OE pads
- Hand brake cable
- Falken ZE912 tyres all round, lots of tread (2yrs old, 2500miles on them)
The car also comes with a full spare set of track wheels (OE 205 GTI wheels, painted black) with worn Yokohama Parada 2 tyres fitted.
Please note milage quoted is on the shell rather than engine. Exact miles on engine is unknown but it was re-built on 11/8/06 and the car has only covered 5668 miles since 22/11/07 - based upon re-build invoice and oldest MOT I have. It certainly pulls well and revs hard towards the limiter (not that I am in the habit of bouncing off of it!).
I have a folder of history stretching back to 2005 with invoices backing up everything quoted above.
Why am I selling? Basically I just do not use it as much as I expected to. I never seem to find the time to book a track day (have only done one) and I just don't seem to go out early on a Sunday morning as much as I used to. Its a great fun car though and genuinely rapid with lovely adjustable and lively handling. I certainly don't regret sampling the 205 magic.
Located Caversham, Reading. Available to view most weekends. Will happily take serious buyers for a decent drive around local A & B roads. Test drives will require evidence of insurance please.
