This for 7k is silly cheap that's my opinion.

Engine turbo ecu is 7k simple as that.

Just to clear any confusion.....

I have 2 x P1's, one of which I took a deposit on last evening....

The second P1 which I purchased from Matt at Tractiv 2 weeks ago for £9k with a host of goodies and just one registered owner and 51k with FSH and a very good forged engine, is sat in my garage with a view MAYBE, of taking it to circa 450/450 inc a 6 speed....& use as an occassional trackday toy...

However, this Type RA came up....we agreed a deal, I bought blind, paid a deposit.....the guy drove it 370 miles to Glasgow yesterday.... we met, I paid the balance, Idrove from Glasgow down to Manchester & tucked it away into my garage....

This morning after much thought I prefer the P1..... Simples !

So.... Ive re-advertised it

I am NOT looking to make any money, merely to cover the purchase price and cover my traveling costs.

My business is first & foremost a Nightclub....secondly....Jewelry, watches, diamond rings etc... I often get offered motor vehicles offered in PX ie; I have a Rolex 18ct Daytona at say £13k & chap has a car trade value at say £6k....We agree a deal, I re-sell the car !

Hope the above helps

Thankyou

I dont see the reason why you have to explain yourself. You paid for the car, so you deserve the right to do what ever

To be fair banny they were my plans...6 speed + FMIC, swap the coilovers, front APs & rear Brembos off the P1 onto this and track this.....

Who knows... If I still have it in a week or so's time I may still do....

I change my mind like the weather Lol

Not that my opinion means FA but I can vouch for Chris as I have dealt with him and was at Oulton park last wk when he was discussing exactly what he has said on this thread....
He does change his mind 100 times a day but I guess that's how he rolls!
He genuinely impulse bought this RA but went ahead with the deal as he dint want to let op down. Like said if had 6 spdr then who knows but I know he was rather fond of his new P1 which is bloody lovely!
Shame we never crossed paths on track Chris!
Hope things ok mate as to why you left bit earlier?
