The time has come to sell the hybrid. Started as a 1.8 when I bought it and then the engine seized up so upgraded to a williams engine. The only reason I am selling the car is because I am at college and dont have the money for petrol and insurance any more. In a few weeks I will be trying it on the autotrader but thought id ask on here first to see if there is any interest first.
I have listed a few things about the car below but anything ive forgot just ask and I will get back to you. The engine was fitted about 5-6000 miles ago and has been 100% reliable since. It runs really well and does not smoke, overheat or burn oil at all.
- Williams engine with 76k bought from RSTuning in leeds (renault specialists)
- Williams ECU bought from the same place
- 16" Team dynamics monza alloys with 4 brand new kuhmo tyres (less than 1000 miles ago)
- Grooved brakes and brand new pads (about 300 miles ago)
- No rust on either of the arches
- MOT until end of septemeber 07
- Taxed until september 07
- Magnex system with de-cat
- New plugs and leads (about 4000 miles ago)
- New front wheel bearing (about 50 miles ago)
- Poilshed rocker cover and carbon F16 cover and inlet manifold cover
- Polished 16v steering wheel and MOMO pedals
- Sony CD MP3 player and JBL speakers
- Toad alarm with fob
- HPI checked with certificate
When the engine was fitted my mechanic checked the clutch which was fine and replaced the alternator belt. I was assured by RSTuning the cambelt had been recently done but this was also checked before the engine went into the car. This car is my pride and joy and has been well looked after. At the moment the car is using a valver box but this seems in very good condition and does not make any nasty grinding or whining noises.
The only bad points about the car are the boot and heaters do not work. The boot looks ok from the outside but is rusted underneath. I would have sorted this myself but have not had the time. Im sure you could find a new boot from someone on here if this bothered you.
Here are a few pics. In a few weeks I will be looking for about £2100 which is no where near what I have spent but open to offers. Thanks, Rob.
