Ive owned this car for around 5 years and carried out a lot of upgrades to get it how I wanted it, so will be sorry to see it go, but its getting slightly dog eared in one or two areas and I now have a 3.2 elite, so its time to move it on.
Its on an X plate - year 2000. 6 months MOT. 137800 miles. Started life as a CD spec car, but I have fitted complete Elite leather interior, doorcards, blind, and have started to install a Bose system, but that needs finishing off. The standard stereo is till fitted and working.
The drivers seat has had the mod carried out to enable the memory function to work. All seat heaters work. The climate control has had the latest update installed.
There is a late elite type windscreen with auto dim mirror and rain sensor (not yet wired in).
An earlier type autodip mirror will come with the car, in case an earlier type screen ever needs to be installed.
The glovebox catch is broken, but a complete good glovebox also comes with the car, along with a bootful of various spares. Everything from a spare diff to a collection of relays.
I installed an elite rear shelf with blind, but the blind is a bit sticky on the way up, I think due to the shelf needing to be secured better to the car itself.
The shelf has Bose speakers and amp in it, and a Bose loom runs up as far as the drivers kick panel. The part need sorting is the loom from there up to the headunit. I have the loom but haven't got as far as installing it.
Also included are the Bose doorspeakers and CCR600 headunit. The facia isn't very secure on the headunit, but it works ok.
The transmission has also had the latest update version installed.
The engine runs sweet,but the cambelt is around a year overdue, and about due in mileage also.
It has had plenty of servicing carried out during my ownership and I have stacks of receipts for the parts used etc.
It has had a new cat back exhaust system within the last year.
The LPG system was a pro install, but not the tidiest installation Ive seen. Its more untidy now, as the brackets which held the solenoids in place have fallen off.
It used to run perfectly on gas but a while back became a little lumpy. I intended to get a professional setup but garages I used for LPG stopped selling it, so I just gave up using it. No point doing a 20 mile round trip to save on fuel costs.
The car is on the LPG register
Externally, I have fitted Early facelift 17 inch alloys, tyres are all ok. HID headlights with headlight wash system. The headlights could do with a polish. Bilstien B4 shocks on the rear. Polybushes on the front wishbones.
The rear bushes on the wishbones could probably do with replacing. There is slight play in the steering idler. The front camber needs setting as I hit a pothole with the n/s/f which caused the tyre to wear unevenly. I have replaced the tyre, but the camber hasn't been done yet.
New front discs and new pads all round have been fitted very recently.
Bodywork. An elite boot spoiler is fitted. the n/s/r arch is going scabby and there is a little rust at the bottom of the rear door.
There are plenty of small scratches etc. as you would expect on a 16 year old car, but apart from the rear arch it generally looks reasonably presentable.
Pics to follow shortly.
Im asking £425 ovno for the car.
