Hi Steve,
It’s my car on the Gorners website, as the supplying dealer they have been very good in helping me sell it.
The car is really a minter; I would go as far as to say I have never seen another wedge in as good a condition. It’s only done 12,500 miles from new supported by documentation, MOT’s etc.
The car was in RT racing last year for a general check-up and Richard said that the underneath it was one on the best he had seen with regard to the original coating and general condition.
If you wish to have a look, the cars not at Gorners it’s tucked away in my heated/dehumified garage and with a cover over her for good measure.
Don’t be frightened by the thoughts of expensive insurance I’m only paying £230 with classicline. Not bad for a supercharged v8.

Email me if you need anymore info etc.

Alan

Alan: the car speaks for itself

The other thing worth knowing for a prospective purchaser is that the firm which did the conversion work for Haughins, DPR, is still around in Yeovil.

Also, I found this
www.lotusespritworld.co.uk/ERoadtests/PerformanceCar_Aug88.html

The 400SX is still on the PH classifieds here:

The original sprintex conversion and brake upgrade added 4k to the price. It'd probably cost at least that to do it now, so on low mileage cars like Alans 350SX and the 400SX, they are both fair VFM in my opinion. Where else could you pick up a 3.5litre V8 with supercharger, and with only 12k miles on the clock for this kind of money?

Dennis Priddle is in Sussex somewhere now - I have his number at home. Look up XJ Supercharging or summat.

As for the 400SX not being 'that good' - well, I beg to differ!!!!

Ah, it's Dennis Priddle is it?

No good then, already e-mailed him and they can't service/overhaul Sprintex units any more
