Thanks!


jeffw - 23/3/17 at 04:26 PM

Nice car by the way.

You might want to advertise it on JPSC as well.


peterrosey - 23/3/17 at 05:35 PM

I actually built this so if anyone needs more details of it, just send me a pm.

It weighed around 560kg the last time it was MoT'd so the power-to-weight ratio is pretty epic. All the bodywork is non-standard and was custom made to be ultra light.

I used to run it in class 2A (road legal space frame up to 1.7-litre) for sprinting and it generally ran top 3 in a class of 10 (the top two drivers were just better than me - in the right hands this is highly competitive!). It's all fully road legal and harnesses etc are up to date for this year so it's turnkey ready to race or track.

Best of all it's light on parts so if you're running it on a track day it won't cost you an arm and leg to run. And will wipe the floor with most supercars and many racecars (except those running down force). Buy some secondhand slicks on eBay and go hunting...

£10K to wipe the smile of a smug Ferrari owner sounds like a bargain to me... especially as it cost me well over £20K to build (stopped totting up when it passed £20K!).


skippad - 24/3/17 at 04:08 PM

it was for sale last Nov....
Price has shot up...


mikele - 24/3/17 at 04:21 PM

Was a few k cheaper before

[Edited on 24/3/17 by mikele]


Hathaway - 24/3/17 at 04:25 PM

yes, i was advised that it was way underpriced.


mikele - 24/3/17 at 04:30 PM

Worth what someone will pay


Hathaway - 24/3/17 at 04:39 PM

indeed... open to offers


Hathaway - 24/3/17 at 05:04 PM

sold


jeffw - 24/3/17 at 05:57 PM

Excellent, well done.


Hathaway - 28/3/17 at 11:19 PM

not sold... turns out it had a cat c event in 1997, several owners ago, I didn't know.
Offers welcome, U2U me please. Thanks.


jeffw - 29/3/17 at 05:16 AM

Cat C on a kitcar makes no difference at all....it just gets rebuilt.


lebaron07 - 29/3/17 at 08:01 AM

Please let me know 1st date of reg, might be interested- thks you
U2U sent


Hathaway - 30/3/17 at 04:08 PM

Folks - date of first reg was 10 Aug 1994 and the car is correctly recorded on the V5 in terms of VIN and engine number/ capacity, plus it shows as a Sylva. The Cat C was in 1997, several owners ago, and a competitively successful era of sprint competition ago.


peterrosey - 30/3/17 at 07:13 PM

I was the previous owner and to be clear on this one, only the chassis, front kingpins and rear driveshafts are from the car I bought.

And the chassis is nothing like when I bought it with a heavily modified front end (all reinforced around the weak points in the front and the steering rack) and fitted with a full custom cage by ProComp to MSA blue book spec at vast expense.

Every other single part on it - including the body, wheels, interior, every single fixing (much of which is ProBolt high tensile) - is bespoke or new. Or very expensive. Or usually all three...

It is a collection of the best of the best and highly competitive in the right hands as well as being fully road legal and cheap to insure.


Hathaway - 1/4/17 at 11:50 AM

sold


alfas - 2/4/17 at 06:29 AM

He did, for £1500 more than it was with the Lotus engine in.


mikele - 10/4/17 at 10:45 AM

I was going to buy this but didn't because of the cat c, bit naughty to buy it cheap because of it then not mention it when you sell it on for more..


alfas - 10/4/17 at 12:16 PM

It is a kitcar, what difference does the Cat C make?


sam919 - 10/4/17 at 01:18 PM

If it's right it's right? Cat C and a new chassis? Great, a newer car than what it was!


jeffw - 10/4/17 at 01:56 PM

Indeed...


rdodger - 16/4/17 at 02:10 PM

Now on ebay at £10,250

FISHER FURY SPRINT AND HILLCLIMB CAR. ROAD REGISTERED RACE CAR!


mikele - 16/4/17 at 06:03 PM

It wasn't clear what happend in its past. But it's not a new chassis,it was repaired.

And a cat c is always worth less regardless of what's happend.

I'd rather buy one that's not , that's all.

[Edited on 16/4/17 by mikele]


mark chandler - 16/4/17 at 06:25 PM

If he is able to buy cheap and happy to sell expensive what's wrong with that provided he informs the buyer of the history. It's called dealing!


simon h - 16/4/17 at 07:52 PM

Nothing if he is a dealer, acting like a dealer. No doubt when if something goes wrong it will be a private sale, sorry cant help you.


alfas - 17/4/17 at 07:12 AM

exactly...the ebay account is a private account...so it will be a private-sales.

i got this car offered for 8500 after it was sold from the private seller. so the 8500,-€ offer must have come from the same dealer who is advertizing it for 10250,- now

if he was willing to sell it for 8500,- he must have bought it for 6500 or so?

so again the question: for how much it was sold?

If it bothers you that much, ask (either) seller directly.

Although, is it really any of your business to know?

i asked the seller...but he never replied.

i dont mind if somebody is "dealing" with things...but in such a rather small community like the kitcar-scene its not "honest" purchasing the car under the cloak of a "private" buyer / collector and than re-advertizing the car 1 week later for a much higher price.

there might be another reason why the original seller has not answered about his sales price:

the car was declared officially as "sold", even it isnt: because the dealer made the original seller the offer to share the extra profit.


PorkChop - 17/4/17 at 12:13 PM

You have your answer then - with the best will in the world you are not going to know.

I'm not saying that a trader posing as a private seller isn't dishonest and unless you have evidence contrary to it then the original seller has to be given the benefit of the doubt.

I will say this though; If you asked me how much I sold (or bought) something for, and the transaction was nothing to do with you; I wouldn't bank on you getting an answer to your question!
