03/53 Vauxhall VX220 Turbo in Star Silver Metallic with Red + Black leather and red soft top plus factory hard top! Just 37000 miles with full service history and 3 former keepers.
Having spent many years working alongside Adrian Blyth selling these fantastic sportscars, I'd like to think I know a thing or two about them and I am pleased to offer this beautifully presented, well maintained factory spec example. Previously supplied whilst I was at Adrian Blyth to a mature professional owner who then owned it for the last three years who has now traded it in for a TVR. It benefits from a full service history with 3 Vauxhall stamps followed by 2 services carried out at Racing Green. There are bills to confirm timing belt + roller tensioner + jockey wheel at 30382mls and OS engine mount at 33325mls along with brake fluid. The expansion tank has recently been replaced and we note that it has received the modification for engine vent water ingress.
On inspection we decided to get specialist Tom Horsburgh to prepare and repaint the rear deck area to remove the oft found micro-blisters and allow the whole car to be well presented. The hardtop is unmarked as is the red soft top. Being ultra-critical there is very slight wear on the cloth bolster part of the drivers seat. The paintwork is comprehensively protected, with Armourfend protection film applied to, front nose cone, mirrors + arms, outer sills, kick plates and rear air intakes!
It has just been MoT'd, it is taxed till end of Aug and once sold it will receive a thorough Pre-Delivery Inspection, next scheduled service will be carried out, it is HPI clear and independent mileage checked and will benefit from our own highly regarded nationwide warranty included in the price!
Number plate not included has been re-issued with HK53 FVB.
Excellent specification includes factory body coloured hardtop, metallic paint, red + black leather to seats, doors and transmission tunnel, Blaupunkt CD tuner, remote central locking, passenger footrest, fitted carpet mats, elasticated sill pockets, "Turbo" scuff plates, hood bag, along with the usual Turbo factory equipment of servo brakes with ABS, drivers airbag, remote starter, front fogs, rear spoiler, etc.
The Turbo model is endowed with sensational performance with maximum power of 200bhp at 5500rpm, a 0-60 sprint time of just 4.7 secs and hugely accessible torque of 250Nm all the way from 1950rpm up to 5500rpm! Emissions are a very lowly 202g/km and 30mpg is acheivable.
Servicing rates are very sensible, either at a Vauxhall main dealer or one of the excellent specialists dotted around the country and a thriving owners club + forum may be accessed at:-http://www.vx220.org.uk/forums/index.php?/index
NB:- Although every effort is taken to ensure data is correct, it should not be relied on.
