GTA Turbo For Sale

Postby blueg33 » Mon Jan 27, 2014 3:40 pm

Hi All

Before I advertise it more widely, I thought I would offer my car for sale here first.

Its a 1988 GTA Turbo with ABS in Stratos blue

The car has had a restoration of RATS 18 months ago which included, engine re-build, gearbox rebuild, new rear turrets, new stainess water pipes, gaz coilovers (slightly lowered), refurbed brakes with new discs and pads, rear subframe stripped and restored, replaced rad, replaced fuel pipes the list goes on.

In addition the car had new carpets fitted in November, Azev A wheels with nearly new tyres, new high flow fuel pump, geo by Neil Garner racing, bluetooth handsfree head unit that plays mp3's etc (original headunit will be supplied with the car)

Lots of pics availble including restoration pics etc see F43 RTP on here nand I can email pics to anyone interested, plus I have the workshop manual

A couple of bad bits:

Windscreen seal needs replacing, I have a new one but havent got round to it yet (but can sort it for a buyer if they wish)
Fuel guage - sometimes it gauges fuel somethimes it doesn't (common issue) the rest of the electics work including the remote locking.

Car has been reliable, I often use it for long trips to business meetings with no issues, no cooling issues (unusual twin fan model) even sitting in a traffic jam on the M25 in 30 degrees heat it behaved perfectly.

Last serviced by RATS in November 2013. MOT until Oct 2014

The car goes very well and I am sad to be selling, but needs must.

Looking for £6000, which is good value considering the work done

Contact me with a pm here or on nicktowe@btinternet.com

A change in circumstances means that I am changing every car in the family fleet, to get a better fit for purpose and desires. I am having more work done next week as it goes in to have the cracked splitter sorted.

I would try and wait another month or 2 as there are 4 to 5 GTA's for sale at the moment which don't seem to be selling.

My mate might be interested in your Tuscan, what's the crack with that?

Tuscan has gone :(

Crap handling (GTA is way better), but oh so fast, and so lovely to look at, my neighbours are now deaf
