Its time to sell my Cesaro after 18months of ownership. Every modification was done AFTER the rolling road read out of 141.4bhp was recorded at Courtney sport, so I believe it should be around the 150bhp mark. The car has been regularly serviced and this includes the plugs, leads, oil filter & oil change. All levels are checked weekly and there all fine. The car is fantastic and it never fails to surprise me in different ways.
The Body Kit is 1 of only a handful in the UK it was imported by a ex max power staff writer for his Astra and when he sold the car the new owner decided to break it and when I saw the kit for sale I snapped it up for its rarity.
I have contacted Irmscher direct and they have said the the following –
“The front bumper & side skirts are no longer available. As for the rear bumper that is priced at £465 + VAT”
So as you can see its rare……………..
In the last 3 months its had a new clutch and clutch cable.
Car comes with 5 months tax and about 12months test. (MOT was today 18/07/07 – replaced a split ball joint and passed)
1994 L Reg
106k on the clock
Electric, heated mirrors
Electric windows
sunroof
Full history inc all previous MOTS
All receipts for items I have bought new for the car
All Rolling Road Graphs
Full picture history of the car whilst in my ownership (from standard to how it is today)
There are the usual stone chips to the car as its 13 years old and but this is a very clean car all round & is cleaned religiously. Im the North West Regional Organizer on www.mk3oc.com ( mk3 owners club ) so I know what im doing with the cars and it has had no expense spared on it
BAD POINTS – (nothing bad and can be fixed in a weekend if someone sets to it)
There is a dent in the passenger a piller (is fine tho) there some little T**T attacked me for no reason.
The heater direction bulb is out on the centre console.
The outside temp gauge is missing from the front bumper
The front bumper could do with being repainted after some debris hit the car on a duel carriage way
I still haven’t removed the bump strip glue off the passenger side of the car (should be done for the new owner tho!!)
I have only fitted one rear number plate light into the bumper (the other will come with the car)
The Airel Adaptor that goes into the back of the headunit has broke off, it was like this when I got the car and I only listen to cds so never fixed it
I also have for sale at extra cost –
A super chipped ECU for the a C18XE (I never fitted it to the car) - £80
Morette Quad Lights (never fitted) just been painted in primer - £200
PICTURES – the car hasn’t had the sideskirts fitted YET and also the rear lights & smoked front indicators on the car at present will NOT be going with the car as there provisionally sold to a friend.
To own a one of a kind car that will NOT disappoint, Im looking for £1500 ono (the kit & engine are rare items alone) this needs to go asap please for the new car to arrive
