Default STUNNING STI V5 - PX FOR CHEAP UK TURBO MY98 - MY00

As most of you know i bought this car in july and after just 10 days of owning the engine went. Well i was unsure of what to do but in the end decided to get it repaired as it was worth nothing broken. Anyway, the car was sent to API engines and had a full engine rebuild. The rebuild cost £3700 and everything was replaced, forged pistons, bearings, crank etc.

I've been looking at my finances and am THINKING that i'm going to sell the car and buy a cheaper uk turbo 98-00

So, the car is either available as an outright sale or i would be willing to take in px a uk turbo MY98 - MY00 on. Out right price would be £7000 which is worth every penny as this car really is immaculate, body work is mint, interior is mint, no wear anywhere, and of course the engine will be fully rebuilt by the best in the business...API

Here's the spec and pics

The car itself is an Ex Graham Goode owned car and has loads of Graham goode goodies on the car which help it push out 340bhp. The power of the car is amazing, i can't stop grinning from ear to ear everytime i drive it. My old car was pushing out around 250 bhp, and i thought it was quick, but **** me, this thing is lightning The condition of the car is excellent and it has only done a genuine 55,000. I have loads of receipts for the car and in the last 7 months it has had a new gearbox, new clutch, new flywheel, new diffs and new discs at the cost of £4000, which leaves you with a car that feels so smooth to drive. loads of tax and mot left too

£7000

Mate, the car is stunning, only done 56k, bodywork is stunning condition, interior is stunning condition, engine is clean. to be honest with you mate, this car is fully loaded and i'm not even sure i wanna get rid, just putting the feelers out at the mo. But believe me when i say you wont find many like mine around.
