For Sale
Make: Tiger
Model: R6
Engine Size: 2000 cc
Price: £9,000
Description
This great factory built R6 has had no expense spared to ensure that it is fast, safe and fun. Perfect race car with roll cage and over 200 bhp in a
car weighing just over 500 kg
It started life as a road car before Tiger racing converted and hired it, and we bought it from Tiger Racing 4 years ago. We have had two seasons in
the Tiger Racing series with 2nd place in the championship on both years. The car is a very high spec car with a professionally prepared Ford (200 +
bhp) 2litre blacktop engine, Quaiffe LSD, Quaiffe close ratio straight cut gear box, One- off exhaust and manifold for improved flow, aluminium
PROTECH shocks, Porsche big disc brake upgrade (6 pot) on the front, Hi Spec brake upgrade (4 pot) on the rear, Brake adjuster, full MSA roll cage and
plumbed extinguisher and many other high quality improvements.
This car comes ready to take to a fun track day or straight to a race meeting. Or, as the car has been made to a race car from its original road car
spec you could always spend a few days making her road legal before re-registering and using on the road. The car can be raced in many types of
championships easily and even the enthusiast with minimal racing knowledge will not have trouble keeping this car competitive whilst also having alot
of fun. The car also comes with some spares including extra race wheels and r888 tyres.
The R6 is a race pedigree car designed for great fun with predictable handling. Please call for any more information. There are more photos available
upon request.
The car has not been used for 2 years and it is now time to sell as another toy awaits - so grab a bargain now at only £9000.
There is also a large purpose-built enclosed trailer if you are looking for one, at only £6500 – another bargain!

Maybe I am being dense, but why does it need to be "re-registered"? I thought nowadays once a car was registered and had a V5C it had to be taxed and insured, or SORNd, until it was scrapped? Or did you just mean put back road legal lights, etc.?
Yup, echo what ^^^ Humbug says ?????
9 grand for a car that needs re reg, and not been used for two years, is imho a very high price

Thats way over priced
Thanks your help guys...............
The reason that I have mentioned making the car road legal is as we purchased it as a race car. Therefore, should someone choose to buy the car and
then take it onto the road they would need to ensure that the car met all legal requirements before completing the tests.
With regards to price. It is my fathers car and he purchased it minus;
Brake conversion
Quaife LSD
Widened front suspension (race legal)
Recently updated de-dion
12 x light weight racing alloys all wit r88's
Lightweight seat
Aluminium radiator
and many, many more upgrades direct from Tiger Racing for £12'000.
The car has not been raced for 2 years however we regularly start the engine and ensure that everything is running well on a small private car park by
his office.
Regards!
So it needs a full IVA then?
i think its cheap for what it is, you coudnt get much better if you were looking to start racing its a fair spec!
What is wrong with some of you people on here! This chap is trying to sell his car and you lot just take the p**s when you haven't even seen the
car. I currently have a Tiger that I race and I can assure you that it is reasonably priced for the spec that it is. If your not interested in the
car then be helpful and mind your own business eh! I thought this forum was designed to help people building their cars and also help people who want
to sell/buy cars and parts.

its slowly turning the other way now tommy
tbh if the title said 'Race Ready Tiger R6 For Sale' it would have caused a lot less grief £9K is not very low cost to many people at
the moment but I know that it costs easily about £7-8K to build a decent 750MC Locost (which is a much lower spec than this and they only ever sell
for around £5k btw) so yes, it does seem to be a bargain - just not 'very low cost'! (and yes I realise it was probably a play on words
)
