Can't think of the previous owner's name? Ron?

I think it was Ron Vincente or something like that.

 

Rockabilly will know more about the gearbox than I do, and the RVR belonged to VR401, so he knows the engine and box better than me as well. I think he did some pretty fast quarters in it from memory.

Okay, here are the rear seat, they are in great shape, as are the front seats.

I took a look under the sub and the rearmost seats are there, folded into the floor, they are the bog standard nimbus fabric seats.

 

You can see the hard-plastic areas around the rear hatch, and around the wheel arches will need re-spraying with vinylcolour, but the rest of the interior looks to be in good shape. The headliner is in excellent shape too.

The other pictures are of the spare ECU and AFM. There is also a spare front end wiring loom, instrument cluster, front driveshaft, airbox, sony stereo, DVD player and screen, and a box of other stuff.

A deposit has been taken, the new owner to be may be parting some it out though, so all the guys that were messaging me, keep your eyes peeled, you may get the bits you wanted yet.

 

Kind of breaks my heart to see it go, but the kids have gotta eat!

SOLD.

 

If the people who were interested in parts are okay with me passing there usernames onto the buyer, let me know. I believe he is going to part out the motor and the rolling body.
