I bought this car with the intention of breaking for parts. I've since found out its an ex fourm car with some good mods. I'm having too much fun on my coupe project at the moment so putting the feelers out if anyone wants to take it on. Otherwise I'll start stripping it over the months ahead.

Previously owned by a user called PawnSacrifice there's tonnes of writeups on here on the mods he did.
For example: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=16689#p242493

Its got lots of extras. I would like to keep the aero side skirts and strut brace for my current projects. Everything else is included:
Aero bumper, Quad exhaust, M steering wheel, cruise control, wind deflector, after market airbox, ZHP gear knob, Red MSport seats electric (not heated).
It has halo headlights with a very cool custom button panel. They aren't working however so needs investigating.

Its MOT has expired and needs work done before a retest. I've put new front springs on it to make it drivable.
First impressions are that the gearbox is vague. Not really an issue but different to the normal notchy feel of a Zed gearbox.
It needs a new passenger wing mirror. The roof motor is dead and still in the rear well. All the body work is solid with no rust.
A new owner would likely be wanting to refresh the suspension struts and full service including brakes etc.

I'll I have forgotten loads of stuff but I'm sure the collective will keep me straight :)

I’ve contacted Matt (pawnsacrifice) via a mutual friend, hopefully he will see this and save his car!

Engines still strong and the mods have held up well. Still won’t be pleasant on the eyes compared to what it was!

Few days and I’m going to have to start splitting it up.

Shame- Matt did come back to me but has now moved to Porsches and has several projects on the go.
