1992 Turbo for sale. Lowered, leather.... PRICE DROP!

Post by dubstep » Fri Nov 20, 2009 2:45 pm

Price drop and alloy wheel change!

Im selling my 480 Turbo because ive decided to go for something a little more economical.

Its a great little car -you simply cannot go faster for less! A boosted hatch for less than £1k!

The bodywork is not mint but it is very good for a 480 and indeed a car of this age. There is slight rust on the drivers side arch but other than that it is very tidy. The front lip is in bad condition as the material they are made form is rather brittle, im sure there will be one for sale on here at some point

MOT for 11 months give or take a few weeks
Tax until 31.03.2010
There is a very nice folder full of receipts included with the car.

Chassis:

- Koni Yellow Rear shocks (think about 3 years old)
- Sachs Advantage Gas front shocks (about 10 months old)
- Jamex 30mm lower and harder springs.
- New front anti roll bar drop links (about 10 months old)
- 14" Volvo alloy wheels with 4 good tyres

Engine:

-Audi TT recirc valve
-New thermostat
-2 litre throttle Body conversion

Interior:

- Full clean heated leather interior
- Footwell lights
- Air con (needs regassing)
All electrics work inc. the info centre! rare!
- Sony stereo with Aux input for ipod

Misc:

-Very new rear lights which havent faded at all!


Pistonheads for pics:

Also included is a box full of spares inc. new water pump, oil filter and other bits and pieces.

£550 ONO, tempt me as ive just got a civic and i want to spend some cash on it!

For the right price (not much more than asking!)

I will throw in a whole spare car!

It would have to be trailered away as they are no wheels included but it has all of the interior, 85k engine with new uprated clutch ect ect

Basically everything you would need to maintain the grey one to a high standard for years to come!

To satisfy the purists ive taken the nice alloys off.

They are Volvo 14"s with 4 good tyres.


Also dropped the price as i have got my hands on another civic free of charge! Its an 89 EF hatch, only a 1.4 carb but it sips fuel and doesnt owe me a penny!
