Paul Hollands Posted August 4, 2021 Posted August 4, 2021 Hi all, I'm selling my SE FW which I built myself from a complete factory kit, but just haven't had the time to use. Its been driven just 483 miles with no track or wet weather usage. I took a lot of time building this and it was finally registered late 2019, before the winter weather and COVID resulted in limited opportunity to use in 2020. During the purchase I also specified the following key upgrade options including; · Limited-slip differential · Wide-track suspension · Upgraded brake calipers · Sport seats with contrast stitching and headrest logo · Red harnesses · Side wind deflectors · Immobiliser · Heater · Carbon-effect rear stone guards There is no damage to the bodywork and the paintwork is in superb condition on account of its recent build and little more than running-in mileage. There isn't any wet weather gear included with the car, since it was never intended to be driven in the wet although I later fitted the side wind deflectors to stop the side buffeting I loved building it and I love driving it, but I ashamedly simply don't have the time to use it owing to other car projects and therefore it would just continue to sit under a cover in the garage. Have probably attached far too many pictures, but thought would help with any questions. Although feel free to give me a call to discuss further and I'm based in North Kent. I'm looking for £16,495. 07831 140002
Richard (OldStager) Posted August 4, 2021 Posted August 4, 2021 Sorry you are selling for such little use, as always life just doesn't pan out. All the best with the sale, lovely car and a fantastic advert 👍 1
Benrobson2999 - Kent AO Posted August 4, 2021 Posted August 4, 2021 Lovely car. Yes great advert too! Good like with the sale Iam sure someone will give that a good home
Steve (sdh2903) Posted August 4, 2021 Posted August 4, 2021 Lovely car at a very good price Just to point out it looks like you have the wheels the wrong way round. Looks like the wider 8" rear wheels are on the front?
Paul Hollands Posted August 4, 2021 Author Posted August 4, 2021 Thanks for your comments. I've just been to the garage to check and all the wheels are the same size (Well the tyres are the same size). Maybe an optical illusion.

The 8J wheels have a flat spoke, the 7J wheels have a curved spoke. You can fit 205 width tyres to both. It's normal to put the 8J on the rear. I've got different offset front to rear too. The car looks great.

Do you know I've never noticed or knew that I'm more than happy to swap the wheels around for the new owner if i get the asking price

Might make the car drive strangely for the new owner on a test run ( if you offer one) 👍

It may be a little more complicated as you've likely centred the cycle wing about the 8" wheel and tyre. If the 7" offset is different, you may need to either re-drill the cycle wing stays or adjust the spacing of the stays from the upright. On my S2000 I've got ET40 on the front and ET23 on the rear
