2003 VX220 2.2 Supercharged Stage 2 – Calypso Red

 

Unfortunately its time for someone else to enjoy this great car, for no other reason than I simply don't have enough time.

Since I bought the car from (from a vx220.org member) in Oct 15, it has only done 2784 miles, As the car has not changed much, most the details as are the original for sale post , or edited where necessary.

 

The overall condition of the VX is excellent, The interior is also great, all the main interior parts have been carbon dipped. Supercharger conversion is great fun and has lovely progressive power – runs great.

A supercharged VX seems to be worth £12-£13k and this one looks particularly nice so up to £14k. This is what I would be willing to pay. Although of course I'd try and get a bargain but who wouldn't ;)

That's what I was having to pay when I was looking and considering a supercharged car. I would have paid that if I found one I wanted. But I managed to find what I was really looking for so didn't go down the supercharged route.

It is very nice and it’s a bargain, but to make 14k it needs Nitrons and 4-ch abs...probably :)

I like bilstein, I think they got the suspension right, but tyre choice and understeer wasn't very good from factory.
