Ok guys
I have an offer of hard cash for the car which to be honest I'm not surprised as I'm letting it go so cheap.
Turbo2015 will be the new owner of the car. He has some upgrades planned already so he should be on the forum soon.

Hi
Im was planning to buy it. however found a car that was already were i needed it to be, I paid a whole lot more than this one, but it saves me weeks of work. Im looking for big power close to 300+ as possible, not the norm.
Have a read of the build thread, this car has had a lot of money and attention to detail. Ive looked at a few Mev's IMO a bargain with all the spares & uprated items such as the suspension/brakes/ very tunable Omex ecu.... tastefully modified with the front/rear spoiler plus carbon bits.
Good basis for more power should you need it being a 2.0 blacktop.

but it saves me weeks of work. That's great it means you'll be able to drive it in the snow this year

Wow for that price I wish I could ship it to the states. Anyone tried to do this with a finished car?

If you import a complete car it has to meet DOT and EPA regulations - which is practically impossible. Without an engine and partly dismantled you should be able to import it as 'car parts'.

This thread has gone a bit wayward, I've asked to have it cleaned up and get it back to the selling hard facts.
The car is still for sale if anyone is interested.
