This car cost in excess of £25k and is mechanically and in terms of running gear almost new. It would benefit from a new steering column bush as there is a tiny bit of play. It is fully road legal and comes with a V5 in my name, although ti is currently on SORN and needs an MOT.

This is a very quick car and pulls from tickover to the set redline of 8250rpm.

£14.995 ono - Brian James Four Wheel Trailer available at additional cost.
