The thing is, the car was up at 10k for quite a while and didn't sell so unless the trader can offer some kind of finance package the new price of 11k could be a big ask.

Stunning car tho..

I have thrown the price out there knowing how rare these cars are to come across. It was worth every penny when the previous owner had the car advertised at 10k (although it started at closer to 12.5k a few months back) Anyone interested in the car is welcome to get in touch. Its a fantastic example.

Surprised none of you guys did not get to it

I think it is still worth £10k, but I simply didn't, and still don't have the funds.

Spoke with the previous owner this morning. This was the estimated figure he was given by Richard Bulmer. I guess Richard Bulmer gave him some ATW figures that just were not true. Previous owner has not had it de-tuned and has stated it "feels the same" power wise as it always has.

Therefore its been running a very safe 377bhp from day 1 with plenty more potential.

The dyno figure was 364 atw which is estimated 440bhp. I don't know where Richard Bulmer got these figures from maybe you can ask him?

As far as the previous owner was concerned he went on what Richard Bulmer gave him in terms of graph etc. I've known Richard Bulmer to map very safe so don't know if this has anything to do with it.

Either way, my concerns were to make sure the car was running well as it came across under powered for a 440bh car. My concerns were put to rest as i wanted to know the car was running fine, the engine is strong and did what it should be doing in terms of fuelling, holding boost and no det. My concerns have been put to rest and am happy to sell the car. I run a policy of honesty hence getting the car on the rollers.

The basis for bigger power is definately present.

Both the s202 and Bug Ra are stunning cars for sale ,but as this is a scooby site,what are peoples thoughts of both cars?

Which would drive better ? Both have a massive ammount of time and money spent on mods,but which one would you have? and why?

Which would handle better ?

I understand the rawness of both cars ,but what is the main differences between a s202 Spec C and a Bug RA ? i know the thinner glass/smaller fuel tank alloy panels and a few ,but what else seperates these 2 cars?

Finally,what can be expected from both cars in the way of further tuning
i think the GT30 is capable of near 500,with correctly supporting mods,but no mention of what injectors the Ra is running.is it just a matter of a remap or other bits needed?

What about the S202 is the MD321T a simular spec to the GT30?
And yes, i am also interested in these cars as a future purchase,so all information would be greatful !
Thanks in advance
