UK 1999 2.2 vti manual

Post by KeithB » Wed Oct 10, 2012 8:38 pm

With the arrival of the gtr, the prelude sadly has to go. I'd love to keep it but money and space dictate otherwise.

The car started life as a 2.0 but was converted to a 2.2 including 5 stud hubs before I bought the car.
It has had its sides and bumpers re-sprayed at some point but the finish is not great as it has orange peel and doesn't look like there was enough time spent on the polishing afterwards, it is also a slightly darker shade of green but is barely noticable.
The engine feels strong and performs well and uses very little oil.
No gearbox issues and clutch is fine.
Back arches showing some rust, not as bad as most but would be worth attenting to this before it has time to get worse.
There is also a very small area of laquer peel on the bonnet.
Both of these points can be seen in the photos.
Penta alloys and continental tyres with good tyres.
Lowering springs.
Induction kit and carbon plug cover (from US)
Stainless manifold, decat and stainless exhaust.
New rear discs and pads fitted.
New n/s rear caliper.
Nardi steering wheel with airbag delete momo boss.
Skunk 2 weighted gear knob.
Rev counter face replaced in order to have correct redline, JDM dial rings.
Front seats have been changed as I wanted to have less beige but original seats are available for free.
The boot floor and it's carpet are missing and the spare wheel is a 4 stud.
The car is taxed till the end of October and has an mot till 24th September 2013, mileage is 115,000.
Only mechanical bad point an intermittent abs fault.
Asking for £900 for a quick sale.
Please feel free to pm for any further details or a viewing, more photos available.

Been on pistonheads for a bit and a few days on egay with313 views and 8 watchers plus one message if I wanted to do a deal on an mr2.
Do you reckon I'm asking too much? Paintworks not great but it's a tidy enough car.

Not asking too much IMO.

Just wait it out a bit if you can and the right person will come along.

I notice you say you changed the original seats out.. Were they leather or cloth?
