My 95 GPX not-so-rare manual is officially up for sale. I need something a little more practial, so until I have the space and money to run 2 cars, I'm afraid she'll have to go. Will be genuinely gutted to see it go, cracking car and great fun.
Most of you have some knowledge of the car, and spec wise, its easier for me to just start with Shane's old ad..

Recent service - Aux belts changed Power Steering/Alternator/Air Con - Have recently removed the entire Air Con system to reduce weight and reduce load on the engine including the fan, condenser, belt, tensioner and all assoc pipework - ttl weight loss of approx 40kgs.
The cambelt (timing belt) has been replaced twice - most recently 1K miles ago when I also replaced the waterpump and a coolant change.
