[color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]Due to increasing house renovation costs I've sadly decided to sell my 2003 NA. I bought the car on the 18th July 2014 from another .org member and have done about 3K miles in that time. The car literally only just turned over 30K last week (30,250). I was told the car had never been tracked by any of the previous owners and I've never tracked it either - fairly obvious from the condition. It has always been garaged and on the odd occasion it's been out over night during the summer it has been under a fully fitted car cover (included in the price). It has a full service history and I have all bills and MOT's to confirm the mileage and any work that has been done, along with a fully stamped service book (I just need Matt Bentley to stamp for the service he did last year but will get this done before sale - I have the receipt). I never ever use this car in the wet and I was assured by the previous owner that he and the owner before never had either. It has very clearly never been left out or used in the rain which can be seen from the engine bay condition as well as the condition underneath. Matt Bentley says this is one of the best he has seen.[/color][/font]

[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]Black V - done by previous owner and looks perfect[/color][/font]

[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]Paintwork is two pack yellow and is stunning and original with a few small stone chips to the front clam and virtually no other noticeable marks and no fading[/color][/font]
[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]Seats are good with slight wear to the drivers side from entry and exit - where they all wear[/color][/font]
[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]Roof is in excellent condition - the plastic cover on one side has lifted very slightly and just needs fixing down - not really noticeable, the fabric is unmarked[/color][/font]
[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]Engine bay is in excellent condition and has clearly not been exposed to the elements. Matt Bentley fitted a new header tank last year to be on the safe side[/color][/font]

[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]The plastic sill cover on the drivers side has cracked in a couple of places but has been neatly repaired. [/color][/font]
[color=#282828;][font="symbol;"]· [/color][/font][color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]The silver centre console is probably the worst bit on the car with scuff marks around the seat belt clips but I’m planning to get this redone before sale[/color][/font]

[color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]If you are looking for a standard car then I have the original standard diffuser and exhaust – both in excellent condition, and am happy to fit these along with standard NA wheels (I will retain the upgrade parts).[/color][/font]
[color=#282828;][font="helvetica, sans-serif;"]The car is located in Welwyn in Hertfordshire. I don't think there can be many in this condition and will not disappoint so I'm looking for £12,250 which is cheaper than others I’ve seen advertised. I’d like this to go to a .org member so will hold off posting on Pistonheads until next weekend. Feel free to PM me with any questions.[/color][/font]
