C20LET Powered Dax Rush

This advert is for my C20LET powered Dax Rush which has been in my ownership for 10 years. The car has evolved over time into what is now a properly engineered and extremely fast vehicle in genuinely outstanding condition. The engine originated from a Vauxhall Calibra 4x4 Turbo and has been heavily tuned and now runs in rear wheel drive configuration. Engine power levels can be switched between low and high boost settings and the rest of the car has been modified to ensure that it can cope with the power and also stop just as fast if needed.

It is perfectly suited to satisfy many use-case scenarios such as attending car shows and events as its condition and build quality is exceptional. I have used and enjoyed this car for many shows and events over the years including trips to Le Mans so it is quite happy on both long or short journeys. Amazing reaction from people when out and about and great talking point.

The car is registered new as January 1981 on the log book and therefore it falls into the historic tax class so UK road tax is zero. Insurance is also fairly cheap with everything declared. A renewed MOT has also just been undertaken.

It comes with a large stack of paperwork, history, user guides, wiring diagrams and manuals. Has two keys and a battery cut off switch and also some spare service items. Mileage in ad is what is on the instrument, not what the car has covered due to the upgraded STACK dash clocks.

This really is a unique opportunity for someone to obtain a really great car, you realistically couldn’t build this car for anywhere near the asking price. Happy to discuss all the associated details along with the cars history with any perspective new owner.

A very reluctant sale, and genuine inquiries only please.

£19,950 ovno
