Norlog Linky


Looks like a lot of car for the money, a std s2 k series with those mods would be advertised for around 15k :o And i quite like the colour B)

This is the advert from Feb


Hi Guys,

I'm considering selling my car as I fancy a change in direction - so just to put the feelers out.

Spec is:
Uprated rear Toe links (a must for sticky tyres)
Uprated Dampers (Nitrons)
Uprated front ARB
Aluminium belled discs
Pagid Rs14 brake pads
Braided brake lines
Competition brake fluid
Nimbus heat shielding under the rear.
Two new rear brake callipers
Throttle Linkage upgrade
OZ Motorsport wheels shod with Toyo R888 tyres (c.£2k) inc lucking nuts
2.0 litre Honda K20a2 Engine and Transmission Conversion by Tony Stansfield
Specific mapping to the car.
New uprated (tried and tested on 300+hp Honda conversions) driveshaft’s & CV joints c.£700
Baffled Sump
Willians Harness and harness bar
Lively Geo with machined front uprights
Painted wishbones
400lbs and 500 springs
Quick Rack (steering)
Oil changed every 2k miles with Silkoline race stuff and Millers)
Uprated Silkoline gearbox fluid
Rear 3 element rear diffuser painted black
Black fuel filler trim
Full service history
Folder FULL of receipts, including the bill of sale etc
2002 Sports Tourer (02 plate)
35k miles (10k on the K20)
Photo diary (sorta) of the car conversion.

The car has wanted for nothing. It is a very well sorted car and will out run most supercars. The handling has never been so good - credit to Greg and Ollie at Phoenix for all the work they have done on this car :)

I've spent *well in excess* of £30k to get it to this spec. So offers around £22k will be invited.

It will really pain me to see this go, but a change is as good as a rest as they say.

Drop me an email: pleyland@wlprint.co.uk
Or call me on: 07703 189084

Cheers thumbsup I'm a bit confused though - is that not Pley from SELOC's car? I'm pretty sure that it's supercharged now, and from his postings on SELOC (I don't read that much, funnily enough) I've not had the impression that it's for sale. I may be wrong though.

From what I can see its Pleys old car which he chopped in for a s/c honda thumbsup


If I had any chance of getting rid of my vx tonight I would be on the plane south tomorrow morning with 15k in my back pocket. Cant see it hanging around for long, fair enough the phoenix converstion doesnt have the best name in honda converstions but at 15k its a bit of a bargin for someone Imnotworthy

Why is it £22k in the posted advert, was that when it was sold previously? I imagine it will sell very quickly at that price. For a car that rare he's given it the same depreciation consideration as with a normal Elise, he could of asked for so much more!

Hi Guys,

Clarification: I did sell this car to Dave and now have a different Supercharged Honda S2 Elise. Main reason was that it seemed the most opportune way to go at the time.

I'm pretty sure Dave is sick of people messing him around so has just chopped the price.

If someone wants a fantastic car, they can do much worse than spend a measly £15k on this beauty.

This before I fine tuned the suspension set up. But you get the idea: http://media.putfile...setup-and-droop
