Hi everyone, sadly time has come to sell my Bugeye STI Type UK ProDrive Black/Blue 08V Color, which is very rare.



Some of you might know this car, this thread back in 2012 has got some info, feel free to check it out as well.

First owner has had the interior retrimmed in black leather and added a webasto electric sunroof.

I have had this car for 4.5 years, I am the 3rd owner, brought her from up North to Kent.

Mileage is 110K.

The car has been extensively taken care of.

Premium parts added when stock parts need replacement. Like when stock radiator developed a leak - I replaced it with a Mishimoto rad ~£270.

Carnauba hard wax applied after every wash, best lubrication etc.

I have got all receipts from all parts bought/installed and work undertaken.

ProDrive Performance package receipt/document is present as well.

The bug is running safe power at 276hp on the Hubs, which equates around 330 at the flywheel. Tested on a hub dyno at TorqueDevelopment in Lakeside and I got the graph.

I ran the engine on Fuchs Titan/Silkolene 5W40 serviced every 7K miles. It barely uses any oil.

The car has never been driven around traffic jams on low revs, revved properly but never track-abused. It feels tight and sharp when cornering.
No rust underneath.

One big common bugeye problem - rusty subframes, has been eliminated by putting a new subframe bought from Matty@MBdevelopments in 2014.

Only selling because I switched to a 911 4S and would like my Bug to be driven by an enthusiast. The car needs nothing but a new caring owner.

Bad bits - sunroof does not work, roof lining is a bit loose, small marks around the bodywork, windscreen has a tiny mark, side skirt has a little scratch and rear seat has some scratches. Nothing you would not expect from a 14 year old car.

I’ve filmed and edited a short video with the car back in 2013:


Another short video with engine bay, interior and outside a bit.

 

This has done 110k in 2012 and 110k in 2016?

 

No, Andy - the car had 78K when I bought it in 2012, 110K is up to date.

I was just keeping the main post of the Bug thread updated throughout the years.

 

Thanks, just looked at the link from 2012 and said car had 110k...thanks for clearing that up!
