Hi

This is probably one of the best examples you will see. It has had a lot of money spent on it, it is always garaged and has full Japanese service history.

Lots of extras including:

Jackson Racing supercharger
Exhaust system
Lowered on Eibach springs
Brand new alloys 16in lots of tread on all the tyres
Chrome roll bars
Immaculate interior
Pioneer CD player
Electric arial
Small rear spoiler, colour coded mud guards,
Front fog lights.

All the usual Eunos extras, electric windows, air con, headrest speakers


The paintwork is in very very good condition for the year.
This is a bit of a one-off.
92 k plate silver 131,000km (82,000miles).
It was imported early in 2003 and I am the first UK private owner. HPI clear.
Looked after by Phil at Performance5 (the main man for supercharged/turboed 5s)

My car has MOT and tax untill May

The near side electric window stopped working (a common fault) I have bought and installed the new part but haven't got it fully working yet. Apart from that it is Imaculate

In terms of performance. It is a really good laugh, you are only a few inches off the ground. The power just keeps coming on all the way to the red line. The torque tails off way up around 7,000 rpm. It has been to a local scooby meet and once rolling will stay with modified scoobs up and down the gears down the twisty stuff and in a straight line (only in the dry )

The modified scoobs are obviously more acomplished all rounders in all road conditions and are quicker off the mark and at the top end.

This Eunos makes for a great wolf in sheeps clothing destroyer of most things on the road.
Or would make a very good track car (Has harness hoops on the roll bars).
Or under 4,000 rpm makes for a relaxed roof down daily driver on a sunny day. It kind of has two personalities. You can just pootle about in it like a standard MX5 or put your foot down and it turns into a bit of an animal. Whater suits your mood really.


Price £5,750 (A new JR supercharger is worth about £2,500 alone)

Reason for sale. I want another scooby.
I have pics so e-mail me at whitehorn_s@yahoo.co.uk for more info.

Can anyone host a few pics to me if I e-mail them?

Thanks
Steve

I can vouch for this motor - very clean, very straight. Plus Steve is a nutcase when it comes to imperfections (nd fixing them) - and this is one nippy little motor! Supercharged Roadsters are also very rare over here.

BTT for you mate - want me to plonk the ad on EV website?

Yes that would be good if you could Russ. Do you want me to e-mail you pics?
Hows the Sti going?
Do you fancy going to the next East Sussex scooby meet? Usually on a Sat at 2.00.
Best wishes
Steve

Yep, pls send pics over and I'll get it posted tomorrow for you. Sales of Roadsters have just started picking up (about a month ahead of normal annual expectancy) so fingers crossed...

East Sussex meet sounds good - loads of mod's done since you last saw the car including clear indicators/repeaters, Sti5 wing, carbon bonnet on way...so are you seriously thinking of dipping your toe in Scooby pond again soon?

Incidentally; to potential purchasers of this car - normal bog standard Roadsters of this era are still being advertised at around this price - this car is NOT normal - it'll 'ave most hot hatches for breakfast and it's power to weight ratio is very impressive too!
