I have decided to break my car and sell all the parts separately. This is a single owner '03 VXT with no accident damage and less than 28,000 miles. I have absolutely everything for sale, including the chassis complete with crash box, windscreen, roll hoop, etc. If you need something to fix up a damaged car I am sure I have one so send me a PM.

Here is just a short list of some of the parts I am selling. Packing and insured delivery will be additional to the listed prices and some of the bigger and more fragile items (e.g clams) are local collection only. I started a project thread here which shows pictures of most of the items.

All parts listed will be taken off my car which I have been using this Summer with absolutely no problems at all. Everything is in good condition and working order as you would expect on a car that has done less than 28,000 miles.

Bodywork
Front clam, Calypso Red, undamaged, armourfend lower bumper, Astra G rubber splitter fitted, ideal direct replacement for a damaged red car £750
Rear clam, repaired and primed ready for paint, with vents in lower bumper £400
Turbo rear spoiler, OE part, carbon fibre wrap over satin black £135
Soft-top, black, very good condition, plus 2 stays & storage bag £350

Electrical
Front headlamps, undamaged £375 each
Rear lights, some light scratches on each unit £100 each

Drivetrain
Stage 2 Engine, complete engine, fully dreassed with turbo & ECU 245 PS Stage 2 AMD map, keys & immobiliser, 27,500 miles £1,000
Gearbox, turbo, 27,500 miles, good condition £250

Suspension
Bilstein spring & dampers, 12k miles old £30 each or £100 for set of 4
Wishbones, complete with balljoints & bushes upper £50 each, lower £75 each

Performance
Jimsan diffuser, 4 fin, powder coated black £150
Milltek exhaust, full stainless system £500
Speedlines & A048R tyres, Turini 16"/17" lightweight wheels & part worn A048R, Elise 4 bolt £650
Brake discs, pads & hubs, lightweight Elise 4 bolt, Eliseparts alloy belled, Pagid RS14 pads, Lotus 4 bolt hubs, set of 4 £375
BMC airbox, CDA, suit turbo or NA, with mounting kit £75

Interior
Seats, black/red leather, both driver & passenger with harness cut-outs and subframes £400
Heater unit, 3 working fan speeds £140
Airbag £125

New service parts
Engine mounts, 2 no. side mounts £35 each, £60 the pair
Cam belt, new boxed, full kit including pulleys £65
Water pump, new, boxed plus coolant £50

I'll accept payment by cleared cheque or bank transfer. I'll try to answer PMs as quickly as possible but if some of the items are in demand I'd prefer to select the purchaser most convenient in terms of delivery or payment option, and not necessarily in the order PMs are received.

Nah, I'm just a daft muppet who doesn't have a clue what I'm doing :rolleyes: The used car market is on it's knees at the moment and it is defintely a buyers market. Replacement parts for VXs however, are in short supply. I have a spreadsheet that says the car is worth more in bits than complete.



:lol: ha ha, you tell em Gary mate! On a plus at least your car will be sub 900kg again soon :D

I'd be interested in your front clam but it would be a waste on me. Anyone with a tatty red car and an original clam want to split it with me...?

Updated list. The items struck through are either sold or provisionally sold pending payment.

Apologies for the delay in responding to all PMs. I am trawling my way through them at the moment. I have sent replies to those that have been waiting a day or so and will work my way through the rest over the next few days.

Rather than inundate the topic with a complete list of all the parts available, I will work my way through responses to this list before listing the remaining parts later. In the meantime if you do need something for your car that is not on this short list send me a PM and I’ll get back to you.

Most of the non-standard and performance items are already listed, so the remaining parts are mostly OE items.

Front clam, Calypso Red, undamaged, armourfend lower bumper, Astra G rubber splitter fitted, ideal direct replacement for a damaged red car £750
Rear clam, repaired and primed ready for paint, with vents in lower bumper £400

Soft-top, black, very good condition, plus 2 stays & storage bag £350

Electrical

Drivetrain
bare engine turbo, ECU (245 PS Stage 2 AMD map) and ancillaries / OE induction parts still available
Gearbox, turbo, 27,500 miles, good condition

Suspension
Bilstein spring & dampers, 12k miles old £30 each or £100 for set of 4
Wishbones, complete with balljoints & bushes upper £50 each, lower £75 each

A photo of the seats for sale at £400. The cut-outs have been re-trimmed in leather and are large enough for 3" shoulder straps. Also, I installed an Elise adjustable lumbar support in the passenger seat to replace the fixed foam padding.

They are in really good condition with only a small amount of wear visible on the driver seat bolster.
