Rods, new piston rings and bearings were done at 151000km then again after my oil pump went at 155000kms. Engine has been rock solid since then. Oil changed every 5k using Penrite. Body is in great condition for its age. I've spent a lot on this car and I still love it so I'm not in any hurry to get rid of it but I kinda wouldn't mind a change.
Asking $11000, a little negotiable but not really. I've dropped well over $30k into this car not including the purchase price so whoever buys it will be getting quite a bargain.

I'd like to add to Carlos comment's. I have had a fair bit of input in the car over the years.
For all the fearsome rep of the big turbo. Off boost I'd be happy to let my daughter drive it as it is very docile. Quite a Jekyll and Hyde car.
The suspension is pretty pleasant in the scenarios I have driven it, highway and suburbia. Much less aggressive than my polo. Yet still able to run quick on the track.
I think you could also get a Pizza or two thrown in if you ask nicely.
Id just like free pizza! GLWS Carlos your cars been a big inspiration for my build! Who ever buys this will be getting a great car!
