Wheels & Tyres Team Racing Dynamics Pro Race Toyo R888’s (pretty much brand new!) Built by a previous WSCC member, and purchased through the club. Car had been specced to create a balance between outright performance, high reliability and low running costs. In my ownership, the car has been completely reliable. Only requiring a new battery and recently a brand new speedo was fitted. Unfortunately, the bodywork though not “tatty”, could do with some work hence the relatively low price for the spec. The interior carpet was also cut by the previous owner to fit the brake bias lever through. I always intended on fixing these myself and originally bought the car to be a track day weapon. However, changes in circumstances meant I have never taken it on track and all the things I wanted to do were never done. Genuine reason for selling, the car has been used nowhere near enough and I now live 150 miles away (in a first floor flat, no garage) from where the car lives. It’s a great car, and the performance is amazing for the money.

robthehungrymonkey Posted May 19, 2011 Author Share Posted May 19, 2011 The car is located in East Sussex, I've had a fair bit of interest, but everyone seems to be from the North! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samcooke Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Compared to East Sussex, most people are from the North. Cheap car that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robthehungrymonkey Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Just to clarify... I'm not keeping the car (sadly), but hoping to have organised a short term arrangement to get it more local to me and easier to arrange viewings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hi Rob, Hope you got my email ok. I'm sure moving it a bit more North will help with your sale - best of luck, seems like an awesome spec for the money. Many thanks, Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_l Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 That's a snip, with a dry sump and BTB exhaust that would cost you almost 3K to put on! Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_l Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Yep, this is the price of a basic XE without the dry sump, exhaust and some other bits mentioned, surprised someone hasn't bitten his hand off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
