Evening guys and girls.

 

Just testing the water at the moment but could be for sale for the right deal.

 

I love this car to bits, I'm starting to struggle with the size of it. My partner doesn't enjoy it and doesn't like coming out in it and it seems I am hardly driving it and feel I could enjoy something else more. My plans were to race it next season as it would be perfect for that, But thinking deeper.. I can't help but feel its a big sum of money to have sitting on the drive as a track car only and also, its FAR to clean to risk stone chips etc in a race environment!

 

The car spec... 

 

Silver, black soft top and red leather. (Just had Leather reconditioned and looks perfect!)

Courntey Supercharger Conversion (stage 2)
Larni Downpipe and cat
Milltek Tailbox
Carbon Fibre Induction System

Full Ali Radiator
Autobush Polybush Kit
Powder coated wishbones (during full suspension refresh)

Scared Stiff Geo (Guglielmi Motorsport)

Kumho KU31 Tyres 
Steering Rack Riser Plates
VXR ABS Module upgrade
Carbontec Door Cards & Handle Guards
Mintex M1144 Pads
Drill Grooved Brake Discs
Momo Leather Gearknob (Matched to Steering Wheel)
TRR Header Tank Cover
Poly Engine Mounts

Full front end paint protection film fitted

Catch tank fitted to stop oil loss and fumes

Top of the range pioneer head unit (bluetooth etc etc)

 

Since buying a have mainly cleaned it up, sorted a few niggly problems and added a few bits! had a few chips repaired and had the car fully inspected and a full nut and bolt check!This in my opinion is the best VX220 on the market by a clear mile if you are looking for an immaculate show winning car, with the ability to dominate the track also!

 

I have dried out and resealed the headlights so no condensation, the car has been fully detailed and protected using the best wax available (Swixxvax Crystal Rock) I have spent hours and hours ensuring this car is perfect and it really shows. The previous owner done a superb job of making this car what it is, I have just refined this and sorted the last little niggles that remained.

 

Condition truly has to be seen to be believed!

 

Car is located in East Anglia.

 

Price - £14000ono

And the mileage is....

[J13ME]

Sorry, failed at the first hurdle!

 

33k!

[Kieran McC]

That was short lived .I thought you ,had big plans for the VX.

[J13ME]

I potentially do, depends on if I get interest. Just at the minute I am only driving it for work. I can't see that changing to be honest for a while

[Captain Vimes]

I'm not in the market but I'd suggest adding some better pictures when you get a chance. Preferably static shots showing off the paintwork and interior etc.

[The Knobs]

Nice spec, could you drive it into a wall and scratch it  a bit then let me have it for £8.5K ?

[J13ME]

Few more pictures guys. Pretty sure I want to sell now. I think an rs5/C63 and a cheaper track toy is on the cards!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Its hard to show the condition of a silver car in photos but the condition is incredible. Needs to be seen to be believed!

Just seen your post on Z4 forum. Funny as I came the other way Z4M roadster to SC vx. Your post on there... 750kg. 0-60 3.5 sec can you tell me how to make my non stripped SC car go that fast. �

[Tony H]

And that light

[The Batman]

[kg55]

Never mind 0 to 60 time how do you get it down to 750kg 

[Chris P Duck]

Mint, I'm stage 2.3657 so I must be almost 3s dead to 60. Woop woop

[haggi961]

I did mention to him on facebook a few times that it won't be that light and the superchagring adds 40kg of weight.

[J13ME]

Im just going off what I have read? I was going to get her weighed but never got round to it?

 

So more like 800 then? the 0-60 time was recorded on a GPS timer?

[rob999]

More like 900.

Mikes fully stripped race car was 800kg, as Rob says 900 sounds about right.

 

What GPS timer are you using? I would question those times without very sticky tyres (sub 100 utqc) and a launch control device. Even then I don't think you have enough power to hit those times.

 

Fastest I managed in a 250bhp Turbo with A048's and almost no wheel spin was 4.2s (timed with a Racelogic vbox)

 

 

Nice car by the way, If the condition is as described I think the price is spot on

First of all, nice car and I hope you sell it at that price. My tubby was 300 BHP and I only ever managed a 4.0 sec 0 to 60 using a racelogic vbox. Most of my runs were between 4.0 - 4.4 secs. This just gives you an idea. You sure you want to get rid of it? really think hard because there isn't much out there around this price that will keep up with it?

[J13ME]

PRICE DROP £13500

 

Im not overly fussed on speed anymore to be honest.

 

I work so much I just want something quick, but comfortable. 

 

so RS4/5/6 Z4M, C63. I have a fair few cars on the list I would look at!

 

Bargain for the money! Spent over £1000 on the waxes for the car and wheels! lol

[siztenboots]

price drop already , in less than a week?
