Hi all,

 

Looking for a Turbo or potentially a supercharged VX220. Will consider trick NA option.

 

Located in Midlands. Not too fussed about aesthetic condition (planning on a makeover) but looking for something mechanically sorted. Ideally black or Moonstone.

 

Would also consider a project - i.e. an abandoned one! :)

 

I've got Saved Searches running on Autotrader too.

 

Cheers

Dan

Don't suppose anyone is familiar with this one are they? Autotrader Link

 

I'm personally not keen on the spoilers but the supercharger appeals...

Mine's up for sale at moment on Racecars Direct. Only reason for sale is I can't get a wheelchair in it! See:

 

https://www.racecars...20-supercharged

 

Easier than pasting all the info here. PM if interested.

Thanks chaps - looking around still. Decided that colour has to be black or Moonstone. Or BRG - basically, dark colours.

Most projects would require a respray so colour should not be the driving factor

Agreed. Do wraps work well given the GRP or a big no-no?

Quite a few are wrapped I believe, but I'm no expert

I'm considering a project - mechanically sort of there but needs assembly and probably some awkward stuff as it's a stalled project (for 5+ years).

 

Is there anyone on here, ideally local to Derby/Leics, that might want to take a project like that on? For $$$$ of course! I can get the interior and paint sorted - it's the connecting all the bits and phaffing that I'd struggle with!

 

I've got the ideas, just not the time (or skill for a lot of it) so if there's someone who likes this part of it but wants to make some dosh and/or knows of a small outfit that might be up for it, I'd appreciate any help.

 

Thanks
