Well,

I got this car from Adam about 6 months ago and its been an absolute blast.

Unfortunately I need a more practical 4 seater car so it has to find a new home :cry: I will miss this car like crazy as the handling is absolutely superb and its quite good at the slippy slidey too (Both Kenny and Mr Doricar can vouch for this).

Specification is as follows:
  • Blast Roll Cage
  • Interpost Bucket Seat
  • Sabelt Harness
  • Aftermarket 1.5way plated diff - :smokin:

  • HKS Pillow Ball Topmounts
  • Brandnew Gaz Coilovers

  • Ally heat sheilds and ducting to filter
  • vented light
  • Oil cooler and remote filter mount
  • quickshift
  • tow hooks front and rear
  • Oil Temp Gauge
  • Water Temp Gauge
  • Oil Pressure Gauge
  • Sparco Rally Steering Wheel with extension
  • 4 Branch Manifold
  • Lightweight Billet engine pulleys
  • Trust Exhaust System
  • Endless Brake Pads all round
  • Cusco Master Cylinder Stopper
  • Precedo Demon camber 7x15 ET0 Wheels
Before I got the car it was treated to a full service by adam which included:
  • New cambelt
  • New Metal Mesh induction kit
  • All new auxilery belts
  • Billet Ally Lightweight Crank pulley
  • Coolant flushed and changed.
  • Tranmission Oil Changed
  • Valvoline 5w-50 Fully Synthetic Engine Oil
  • New NGK plugs
There were a few little niggles with the car which I have sorted out since I got it.
  • Install brand new Goodridge braided brake lines (60 quid) flushdown brake system and new fluid
  • Replace drivers side electric window mechanism with a brand new unit from mazdaparts (60 quid)
  • Brand new clutch slave cylinder from mazdaparts (25 quid) full bleed and new fluid
  • Replace blue rollcage padding with black FIA approved stuff (40 quid)
  • Repair warn flexjoint in exhaust manifold (100 quid)
Car has been serviced twice since I got it (last one approx 600miles ago) including brand new Diff fluid to keep it working sweet. Car has attended 1 Drift UK practice day and it allowed me to re-gain my license which had lapsed since the old days of OPT Dirft Club.

Car will be sold with the following extras
  • full set of 14" BBS Wheels (no tyres)
  • full spare set of coilovers
  • full brand new set of 15" tyres (as well as whats already on the car)
  • Fully synth oil and new oil filter ready for when the new owner chooses to service it nextD
  • Diff fluid the next time the new owner decides to change it.
  • Single din stereo conversion plate (brand new from mazdaparts - never got round to fitting a single din stereo)
so all in all it cost me 4K for the car and I've spent approx another 400 or so making sure it is kept nice. Car has MOT and approx 6-7monrhs roadtax left (in fact MOT til 9th Feb 07, Taxed to end of July 07)

There are a still a few little niggles with the car which I have not gotten round to resolving:
  • Nearside headlight does not go down - probably just the motor that needs replacing (can be wound down manually)
  • Offside front wing has a small ding just at the top of the arch. This has been painted to protect the metal but not repaired (dont really notice it)
I know I will miss this car very much and I guess its az 'pure' a driving sensation as you can get from a lightweight extremely well sorted little car.

3,500ono

All the above will be sold as a package - I am not prepared to split the car.

Nice car, was waiting for this to be sold but then bought another 86, wise you had of decided to sell this 2 months ago :(
 
Cheers buddy,

yeah she is a lot of fun - just not to practical for me to own at the moment. If I had the space I'd almost be tempted to keep it but I dont :cry:

bump to my bad self :smokin:
 
Bro I, let me speak to a female friend's of mine, think she is looking for a drifty car to start. will txt you or pm you once i find out.
 
Cheers Bro Kenny.

That day at silverstone was big fun. Most fun I had in a car since I blew the corolla up

(blatent blag of Mr Ross's fine photography to help sell the little car)
 
:cry: Dont let me see this!!!!!!

This is officialy the most fun car in the fucking world, gutted that this is for sale, cost me a fortune to build but my job just don't allow me to run this type of car at the moment or i'd have it in a snap. In fact don't buy my Skyline buy this fucker.

And a perfect starter car as there so much feedback it's unreal!
 
Quite possibly one of the nicest looking mx5/eunos I ever clapped my eyes on.

Sorry for this mr adam :p
 
Yeah - shes a little trooper. I will miss it like crazy.

Thinking back to the practice day I took it to it was as pure as a pure thing. So involving to drive - every move you make of the wheel - no matter how small has an effect on the car. Shame I have to sell :cry:

Dude stooooooooooooooooooooop it :cry:

Can't make it over tonight as my retard of a tyre fitter took it upon himself to put 255/45's on the back of the datsun, so it scrubs like a mother fucker ( i picked it up in the dark)
So tomorrow i'll be asking him in a polite manner to fit some 235's instead, these fucking free tyre suppliers eh! how dare they fit wrong sized 7mm tread Mich Pilots for free ........lol
 
this is a great little car, i almost bought it myself a while back, but i needed something more practical for work :(

someone should buy it very quickly !
 
Its fine.

The suspension is obviously very very hard and the bucket seat really holds you in place (if you have chunky love handles like me LOL). I drive it to work every day and it has never missed a beat. It just doesnt have 4 seats which is unfortunately what I need right now.
 
This thread isn't helping the fact I know I'm really really going to miss my Roadster. It's being sold tomorrow and I feel absolutely heartbroken.

Anyone with a whiff of nous when it comes to driving will love a well sorted Eunos Roadster. I've had a ridiculous amount of cars and nothing comes close in terms of feedback and responsiveness. Whoever buys this car will love it, totally.
