V6 on Collecting Cars

[themonster]

Hi all,

Does anyone know anything about the V6 that’s just gone up on Collecting Cars please?

Cheers

I found a little history on this car.

Was at Lake district meet 2015.
Fred went to view the car with a friend and walked away from it as it was "knackered and ropey"
174 had a broken bracket on the inside of the drivers side pod
Someone had added heat reflective material to the top surface on the lower engine cover
Rear bumper has seen paint
Front bumper and drivers wing seen paint
V6 badges added to the doors on the B pillar
Front lower spoiler had been added with glue
Windows tinted
Dodgy paint around the rear 1/4 where the top on the pannel meets the boot lid
No evidence of belts
Only 2 service stamps


255 Titanium Silver Standard 174 B9 DBL - old wayne Owned by Old Wayne ex Club Member

Was sold by http://www.carsofextinction.com/2004-Re ... rt-225.php

bought by club member Sammam. (now selling it privately August 2015)

Great intel, thanks!

I knew I should have been suspicious when I saw that rear wing. Sounds like this should be a flat no then, unless it goes cheap? Which is a shame as there’s not much else out there

I recall a heated discussion about the rear spoiler being made from MDF.

Another invaluable service by the forum.... minus the weird heat reflective stuff, not sure why you would do that? Would it make the cabin cooler or just retain the heat?

It looks very tidy but I guess photos are always misleading. I thought Collecting Cars put pictures of under the car.

Yep interested but do I have access to DMs? Do I need to subscribe to something else first?

This is blowing my mind - that’s about where I thought it would end up if it had a great story behind it but on past auctions it’s still got a way to go in the last few days.

You existing owners must be loving this and good luck to you!
