Rovertech 2.0

The time has come for me to part with my 600. It's been a fantastic car and I've loved owning it but now I fancy a change. It's a fairly unique car so needs an owner who can appreciate what it is.

It started life as a 1998 618Si with SMC factory kit. With the help of Julian I put in an imported 2.2L Vtec lump from a 1994 Prelude (H22A). The engine is fantastic, makes 197bhp from the factory and revs to 8k - it's great fun.

So here is the good list of things I fitted:
- Full Ti interior
- ABS
- Ti front brakes (red) with black diamond discs
- All round electric windows
- Electric mirrors
- Cruise control
- Air con (not working)
- Omni custom made coil overs (£1700 when new)
- HIDs
- Stainless manifold, full exhuast and de cat, cat fitted atm (£850)
- Induction kit taking air from the wing
- Braided brake lines
- LSD gearbox (£200)
- Chipped ECU, no speed limiter and Vtec @ 5k rpm now
- SMC spoiler and side skirts
- Momo alloys, 4 on car and 2 spare, fitted 4 part worn Falkens so good meat
- Short shifter
- Blue lit dash board
- Clear side repeaters
- Auto gauges oil pressure, oil temp and air fuel (oil pressure not working - gauge dead)
- Front strut brace
- Laguna splitter
- Meshed grille

I'm sure there is more but it's hard to remember it all!

Right bad bits:
- Not MOT, has been SORN since July
- Needs new CV boot (I have that)
- Handbrake cable needs replacing n/s, it has stretched
- All discs need a clean up, probably a good drive will sort them
- Rust, there is some nasty metal work around the n/s rear arch - it won't fail an MOT but if you want to get her back to formed glory it needs doing

Hear are some pictures of her in her prime - she has aged a lot since then so please don't expect it to look exactly like this!

More photos on request.

I also have LOADS of 600 parts floating around, these could go with the car for a little extra.

Now what I'm hoping is someone will take the car whole and get as much enjoyment from it as I did, however I know that might not happen. If it doesn't I will break the car.

If you are interested in part if I break the car please PM me and don't clog the thread with requests. I'll make sure those people get first dibs.

Mileage wise the whole car is ~ 150,000 I think, but the engine is only about 90,000.

I'm look for offers around £700, but any serious offer will be considered.

If you need any more information please let me know.

Thanks,

Jynx

its a sad day james , I remember building this, and you were spot on in making sure I had all the parts ready to build it. Shame to see her go but well who ever gets it is going to be happy I am sure , and if it gets broken 1st hmm you know where I am

Bump for the weekend.

I now have a pack of photos taken yesterday. For those who are interested, message me

Jynx

Please pass it around!

i hate to say it myself but you might aswel break that. I get the feeling whoever buys it will do it anyway

I want this just money is tight and its a fair distance away from me I would put it back on the road but do think it would make more money being broken

I know I could get more money breaking it, but I would love to see it stay together and I don't have the time to break it. Fingers crossed it goes to someone who will fix it

seen in the flesh really nice car wish i had got it now....

did this sell Jynx?

Good question!

Someone won it, but they haven't made a move to come and get it yet and aren't really responding to emails. Very frustrating!

I think I'm going to have to go down the non paying buying route

gotta love ebay retards

well jynx, got the car home safely she is all parked up, you made me laugh when you said it got built on my drive and now it will be dissasembled on my drive . we took it for a wee drive still drives mint mate and all the parts will be given to new homes . Will be breaking her over the next few weeks and all the parts sold off then its off to scrap yard .

cheers bro and I know you will miss her but she served you well and the h22a still purrssss

Shame really, can't be many of these conversions about.

be over later jules lol
