Default Considering Selling Up 450+bhp Blobeye, 340bhp Bugeye, 2.1 Stroker Parts too

Considering selling up as I've been looking at houses recently,

I have owned my 2003 Blobeye for over 4 years it's now running over 450bhp with a decent spec on the Ethanol map @ 69k miles ( SC42 tinkered by Owen Developments ran 12.3 & 120.5mph with a crap 1.8 60ft.) 10k ?

I have owned my 2002 Black Prodrive Bugeye Sti for almost a year now too that closer to 130k miles tho (stock car with a map & arch rust but relatively clean everywhere else) 5.5k ?

I also have almost all the parts for a 2.1 stroker other than oil pump, head gasket & 14mm headbolts (RCM Pistons, Manley Rods & JDM Inlet all new gaskets bolts etc) Offers ?

As well as the old knocking Semi-Closed, AVCS Heads engine from the Bugeye which was knocking @ 119k but has never been opened, ( Long Engine on a pallet ) Offers ?

Would anyone be interested in any of the above ?

Specs for both cars will be on my thread,

Yep, sadly I've been there where I sold all my pride and joys many years back to get enough money for my first house deposit. I rolled around in a diesel escort estate to save money, it was lowered though with alloys so looked the *****.

Also I still had a modified RX7 under a car cover and a modified Rover 620ti toy all of which I eventually sold once in my new house. Sold all but my classic beetle.

You have to make these sacrifices but it's all worth it in the end and it gets easier the longer you do it.

Thanks mate,

It's not a certainty, I am tempted to put it off still while i have no real responsibilities sell it all and buy an Atom, Supercharged one would be the dream, although the new Atom 4 with the latest Civic Type R 2.0 Turbo has 2 year waiting list,

If i survive i can always do the whole house thing later lolol

The Blue/Black Prodrive Bugeye Sti got a new MOT yesterday,

I would be asking for £5,500 ono.

I can't find another Sti for that price available right now,

The arches let it down but the car is solid everywhere else, 4 fresh AD08R's, RC5+ Pads & Relatively new 2.75" Miltek Full De-Cat

I know its worth more in spares, its a shame as it really is a decent runner apart from the arches.

From what i could find there where very few Prodrive Bug in that colour. Still has certificate etc.
