good on you. individuality is what makes the world a better place to be in! I personally think it looks great, but im not keen on the rear spoiler. Just a little bit too much of it for me.

Also, im going to have to say please dont supercharge it. To go forced induction on such a wonderful motor would be to miss the point. Go for an NA tune and retain the engine's character as much as you can.
///M did a pretty good job getting a lot of HP out of it n/a, I think to get much more without FI it would cost huge amounts. A light pressure supercharger will retain much of the engines character but give it a good hike in torque and power.

1 question,
Are you selling it because of you're wife or because you are needing a new project??
its just in the ad it says both, now i know if my mum didnt want my dad having a weekend toy she wouldnt let him buy another!
Dont mean to be annoying but just stating a fact

You dont seem to do a good job at selling it.

I'm sorry but I read that ad and think 'c*nt'

calling it a 'toy' makes you out to be someone with all the money in the world and just wanting to show off about it and let everybody know and also gives me the impression its been ragged and then thrown away until the next time your feeling bored.

It is a very nice car and im sure your a very nice person but you jsut seem to come across a bit... well, spoilt i guess.

It doesn't look like he is that keen to sell it.

If I don't get what im asking, I will keep the Car and Fit a Supercharger and show it over the summer.
Why don't you drive instead of treating it like show piece?

So you Read Peoples For Sale adds and think 'c*nt'? Your a nice guy eh?

so like the high % of people on here with "toys" i aint allowed to say that when i sell them?

The Fact is it IS a toy to me and i hardly use the car, i built the car how i wanted it as i thought it would be that little bit different and the wife could use it as an everyday car but the end result was something i actually dont want the wife driving and i get very little time to drive it myself, the same very reason i just sold my Escort Cosworth Show Car.

Trust me im far from spoilt nor do i rag my Cars as you put it.

I think i stopped Ragging Cars when i left my 20s :P

Im getting slated for my for sale advert, im hardly a car salesman so i did my best.

I could have sold the car a good few times in the last couple of months but due to work and the insane snow we have had up here its hardly left my garage let alone let anyone view it.

Ive just put it on ebay again with a much lower price and being honest its the last time i will list the car as the amount of timewasters and tyre kickers is unreal when trying to sell something like this.

The weather was nice all last weekend (for a change) and i did a good few miles and really enjoyed driving the car but i could be done with the cash for some other things. (i wont say Toys as that make me a 'c*nt')

Thats my Rant over but its expected on here, but for the record i read YOUR Post and actually thought it was you that was the 'c*nt'

But serious, thanks for the comments, Good or Bad.

Some more pics:
