Default RB5201 for sale

Hi, having been thinking about it for some time I have decided to sell the scoob. In the last year I have used my diesel run around for commuting to save petrol and extra miles being put on the scoob and since doing so now use it less and less, and can no longer warrent the extra cost of owning 2 cars. Only having a couple of evenings spare to see friends/spend time with the wife I have only been to a handful of events, but it is clear you are all enthusiasts, and would prefer to sell it to the type of people who make up the ESC, ie those which would appreciate the car, woud take good care of it and make better use of it than I have in the last few months.

I have owned the car for nearly 3 years, it is a wr sport model of the RB5 and so comes with all the usual ppp upgrades. Mod wise the car comes with a fully decatted scoobysport exhaust(I still have the original centre if anyone wanted to put it back on), K&N air filter, and eibach springs. The geometry has been set up to the prodrive settings and has been done twice in the last 18 months.

Sound wise the car has a sony head unit with sony rear speakers and alpines in the front. I personally prefer the stereo off, windows down and the sound of the flat four!!

I have cleaned the car reguarly using only swissol, and what I have left will be left in the car for the next person.

Servicing is complete either by a main dealer or independant specialist, including the big cambelt change.

The car currenly sits on 18" superlegs with toyo tyres in good condition, I also have the spare to match. It also has 3 BF defis mounted in the dash.

To sell as it is now I would be looking for £8850, or £8150 with the defis out and the original wheels back on (also with toyos in excellent condition).

Mot is until may and tax would be approx 6 months. The car also has cat 1 alarm and RAC 24hr tracker.

I would also be leaving the WRC number plate on.

Not sure what else to add apart from I have loved this car since day one and will be gutted to see it go, but fincially need to.

Any comments please feel free to add.

Thank...Rich

Hoping to get some pics up this weekend, done 72k, always warmed up and cooled down on every journey.

Hi trails, yeah selling them both, not sure what to get yet, nothing as fun as the scoob. Maybe a newer diesel, golf, audi or maybe alfa147, not sure yet. May just keep the fiesa for a while and save abit more for something better.

Default Adding Pictures

OPEN AN account with Free Image and Video Hosting - Photo Image Hosting Site : Photobucket.com (its free) then upload your picture (s) to that.
then once that has been done, under the pictures are 3 different addresses (URL, TAG, IMG)
highlight the URL addy & then right click & copy,

then back on S/N go into advance when writing a reply, (which is same as this page)
on top of page you will see a LOAD of symbols you need to click the & a second box will open, in that box you need to paste the URL addy into it.
then click o.k & HEY PRESTO picture SHOULD appear in the space

BAZ

Hope this helps.
