Hi all...
Okay, she's not a BMW...
Basic Stats:
- Org Reg June 2001
- OMV 40k
- COE 31.5k
- 3rd Owner
- 88,000 kms
- Org TTC180 FWD
- 5sp Manual
What I've done:
- Took a stock car and upgraded almost every possible thing
- All wear-n-tear parts were either replaced or upgraded in Mar '05
- List of upgrades are too long (and slightly embrassing) to list
Brief:
I've got invoices (most of them) to prove the expense at which I went to put my baby together, and she's also got bits on her that are simply not available here in SG. The number of miles she's done will be of no concern because when I took her in, she spent almost 2 months (documented too) on a hoist, engine dropped for over a month, and all worn hoses, cables and other parts, were either replaced with orginal or better parts and therefore am confident to say that she's now in better shape than when she first rolled off the showroom floor in June '01
I can honestly say that she's a whole lot more fun-around-town than a M3 (and a whole lot cheaper to maintain), cos I've got one too... Don't anyone get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that the TT is a better car, cos of course its not... but in town, with a manual box, IS more fun...
I don't 'have to' sell her and I really feel its a shame to gut her up to export cos she's in too good a shape to be simply exported... Reason why I'm thinking of letting her go is simply cos I'm itching to get get something else, but can't afford a stable of cars and so 'something's gotta go, before something else comes'...
For serious buyer, Invoices, Dyno-charts, and even a chat with my mechanics, are all available, I've got no problems taking him/her out for a spin.. but no low-ballers or joy-riders, please..
Some photos are avail in 'Members' Rides' section of Photo Gallery, look for "kl88"...

.....i'll feel just as sad to see it go off local road.
