Thanks it’s an awesome car just needs a little freshen up was built around ten years ago I’ve owned it for 12 still solid underneath (mantasport 👍👍)

That would be mine😍 thought I would try and sell it to concentrate on the j reg coupe serious lack of space but certainly not worried if it doesn’t sell 👍

JUST GOT THIS MESSAGE OFF A GUY ON EBAY NICE TO HAVE SOME MORE HISTORY TO GO WITH THE CAR hi I used to own this car in 1994 when when its first MOT was due i purchased it from a salvage yard in kidderminster for £2200 it had damage to the n/s rear quarter panel from an accident.it was an i240 (originally) it had the full irmscher i240 body kit (not 400) you are correct in saying it was the last one registered as the previous owner wanted a new manta and as only the replacement calibra was available Tom May MD of irmscher uk (steve thompson cars litchfield)agreed to build one for the customer. it had a 2.4 irmscher motor 8v cih type engine and originally had a blitz interior although when i got it it had daytona check and a disc braked rear axle with LSD although when it was new some parts where used that where second hand it was never registered as an exclusive. I lent the body kit which was bolted on to Trevor Lewis who formed rally tech to remake the n/s rear arch which was missing in the accident in order for him to copy the complete kit in fiberglass as they were extremely rare in UK,i removed the engine and replaced it with a 2.2 carlton block as the engine was a high output unit and i had a need for it for another project.The guy i sold the car to after he begged me to part with it lived in cradley heath in the black country where i believe he never got around to finishing it off obviously its probably changed hands a number of times since

Lol that’s more than me I pushed it off the trailer and into the garage 😂

Front lower or nosecone?

Yes roof is mine I went a bit ott last year buying parts and panels when you have mantaritous it’s hard to control the disease 😂😂😂 No not me this time

Lol yes sticky was mine (great car ) thanks to mantasrme 👍I think I’m ok for blood 😂😂😂

This is one of my cars I’m thinning down my collection it used to belong to a respected member on here (mantadoc) before he passed away

I would go look at it first as I painted the car and I’m no where near a professional painter it seemed to react a little I know he’s covered it stickers but as mantasrme said earlier if you pull the stickers off you may have paint coming off I don’t have a spray booth I just had to make do with a sunny day outside as for the mechanical side and the way it goes and handles it’s a thumbs up 👍

Goes and handles very well you may remember this was Matt black then white when it was mine not that long ago it’s a cracking car I never fancied a hatchback till I owned one amazing what you can get in the boot must admit the stickers aren’t my cup of tea I only did paint and changed wings I bought it already modified from mantasrme so I knew it was a good car 👍

Lol fair point 😂😂

All paid up for another year cheap as chips 👍 (the price not me lol )😂😂😂

Not sure it was on a coupe I bought few years back from off here belonged to a guy called oldwheels it’s a fibreglass cover on a metal frame from a bonnet he took the skin off I never noticed the position of the vents 😯 All look great to me 👍
