Renault 21 Turbo Phase 1 Black For sale (Known as Bob) ?2800

[Lewis]

After six years of owning Renault 21 Turbo's and just over two years of owning this car I have decided to free up some money and move onto pastures new.
Many members of the club will already know of the car and the fact it is one of the best examples out there.

Current Mileage is 131,000 miles
Tax until 31/1/2013
MOT until 01/3/2013

I have much more information and photos to add detailing the condition and specification which I shall do tomorrow.
Please contact me via PM if you are serious about purchasing the car.

The engine oil has been changed every 6000 miles, throughout the life of the car and fully synthetic Mobil 15W-50 Motorsport has always been used with a genuine Renault Oil Filter.
The car has been run on Super Unleaded throughout my ownership as I believe with the modifications to the engine and increased boost pressure it provides a safety net against detonation. However the previous owner informed me that the car will quite happily run on 95RON standard unleaded.

If a fair price is met I will include 5litres of Reanult type D coolant and 7 litres of Mobil 1 15w50 these fluids alone are worth around ?70
I also have a mountain of genuine new and used spares as well as some genuine europacup parts which can be sold with the car if the price is right, however I will also be listing these separately on the forum over the coming days.

Time for an update! I've been very busy with work and other commitments recently also what with the weather being rather unpredictable I've struggled to find the time to get Bob cleaned up and photographed.

Forget the 21s. What juicy five bits have you oh Lord of the Horders ?

 

[Haz]

Good luck with sale and hope the funds allow you to finish your project. It's a shame you haven't had chance to use the bits but I'm sure the rest of us will lol.

 

[Juleshh]

Is BOB ready to go? I used to own it before had the Roger Hewitt treatment. j

 

[Lewis]

Original post updated with photographs and info.

ohhhhh she does look clean......i nearly bought BOB last time round but you beat me to it.....shame i have a house in dire need of a refurb - good luck with the sale.....

 

[Lewis]

Thanks John and to all those who interested and gave the comments on Bob.

Bob is NOW SOLD to an RTOC member, no doubt it will be seen at a few events.

The member should have a silver phase 1 for sale soon, this car was viewed by a few members on here some months ago and from my quick look at it appeared to be a clean car.


I have plenty of genuine parts new and used to sell on which I'll be listing over the next few weeks.

Do you think you'll regret it Lewis....

Oh, and thanks for thinking of me with the silver ph1. I still miss VUK, but sticking to the red one for now....

Anyone interested in the Silver 21, then I can vouch that its looking pretty good after the current owner has spruced it up, and sorted it mechanically!

 

[turboted]

I am now the proud owner of Bob, really enjoyed the drive back from Lewis tonight.
Thanks for the comments on my silver 21, I will have it up for sale by the weekend if anyone is interested.:smile:

 

[Juleshh]
