He was last active 21 August, fwiw. No alternative method of contact listed (some users allow contact by email, not this one).

It was up on Facebook as well, should be in one of the buy/sell groups.

Time to come clean

Currently without a toy in the shed, so contemplating my options, and another SE is definitely a contender.

Tracked down my old car to WA, but think it may be too much of a track car these days

Thanks mate, I'll have a look. Good to see some familiar names still going strong here

I still want something that I can take for a weekday/weekend run, so needs to be somewhat compliant and comfortable in traffic. I'd probably reached that limit with the last build, but the subsequent owners have taken it just a bit too far imo. Besides that, this time around I really fancy a Titanium Grey car

No, it didn't sell. I've pretty much taken it off the market now, sick of silly wannabes and little boys wanting a perfect car for nothing. I was going to post something to that effect here when I got around to.

But if you're neither of the above I'm happy to talk. Try my email - andyc756@gmail.com

Unfortunately you have to be patient for a good car to find a good buyer, and you need a thick skin on FB to deal with the trolls. The market has cooled somewhat from 1 or 2 years back, but I think there's still buyers for good cars, well documented and cared for.

I do feel that your listing is hampered a little by lack of information around the engine rebuild. A good rebuild is very desirable, but it's important to know what was done, what parts went in, and who built it. The dyno power not matching what one would expect from a built engine with that turbo also raises questions. I think you said you bought the car with this all done, and no information about it, which is unfortunate.

However, even with those concerns, it still presents a compelling package, and I think you've priced it well, you just need to get it in front of the right buyer. Have a chat with Skyhi, he knows the cars and appreciates what goes into them, he might just be your man.
