Breaking FTO's

Postby steelroe » Tue Jan 24, 2006 12:44 am

I bought a GPX (TIP) the weekend and have decided to break it for parts.
No damage running perfectly so all parts available down to the last bolt.

Some extra's include.

Cobra alarm system
Alu illuminated kickplates
Alu gear shifter.
18" Aloloys (see my other post in the for sale section for details)
Alu Handbrake
Factory fitted Traction Control system
Panasonic CD sytem and head unit (6 cd changer and remote control)
Remote start system
Aftermarket skirts (one damaged but repairable)



Note

No GPX exhaust center section
No blue seats
No aftermarket bumpers or spoilers


Also breaking the following FTO's

TIP GPX
TIP GR
TIP GS

If you are looking for something please ask.

I am open to any reasonable offer.

Seems a shame to break a car thats running fine, but I guess if thats what you want to do with it...

The illuminated kickplates, they both working ok? What colour does the FTO logo light up?

You still got parts on that FTO. Need parts after hitting mine off a kerb. Damaged Wishbone and steering rack I think.

You got these parts?

Just be sure you get the parts before you send steelroe money, i was left short a serious amount of gear when i last sent him money before hand and he wouldnt reply to my pms calls or text. Paul Nolan will tell you he has wasted his time aswell before, just a friendly warning. Ricerocket is definately the way to go

Sold them already Dave (& Kruizer) - chap in Limerick bought them off me - had worn seat covers on his FTO.

In relation to Nailers comments above, Requested parts were suppluied and the list was neing added to every time I got a call for the sme money. And as for Paul Nolan I do not remember ever being in contact with him. Then again I could be wrong I get lots of calls for parts.
I have supplied numerous owners and members of this forum and never had a problem.

I have bought lots of stuff off Steelroe inc exhaust, stepper motor, Hiro spoiler etc and never had any problem - he even took trade ins for the hiro by taking my standard spoiler and skirts off me. This has been the experience of the majority of guys I have spoken to that have used him.

I'm gonna second this statement, I've never had any problems dealing with Rory and I've got plenty of parts of him over the years. Might be best to take this one offline guys (if you havn't already done so).

Been there done that no answer to pms, texts of voicemails, ive absoultely nothing to gain by making any of this up and at this stage i dont really care about 130 euro its just the principal of him feck me around that gets me. I have many PMs of him confirming exactly what he was to send me and he didnt bother his ar$e sending literally half of it. Not making a big deal about it just said i'd give people a friendly warning

I can only speak from personal experiences but Rory is always quick to call me back if I can't get hold of him.

Polite and Friendly too - even when he's busy..

Sure he doesn't appear to be overly active on the Forum these days - but send him an SMS or leave a voice mail - generally only takes a few hours before he gets back to me.
