Loose Cannon 582 Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Lovely. Assume you have something to do with this Nigel as the pic above is not in the advert? I spoke to the owner, wish the timing could be better as a copper Turbo is my teenage fantasy. He reckoned he was only half heartedly advertising (and getting stupid offers from dealers) but he must have changed tack to add photos.

Trevsked 777 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Bazza, :-) really, I would have thought you guys would have the dry sump pump down as £20k on it's own. Nigeninja, Is there an advert somewhere with pics and details? I've looked but drawn a blank. Where is the car located? Trevor. Quote I'll get around to it at some point.

hopo 154 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 cant find the advert anywhere. if you want to sell it surely maximum exposeure is the way forward! If your in a hurry to sell an esprit then you certainly wont get top dollar... theyr such rare cars with a very small pool of people looking to purchase... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nigeninja 62 Posted May 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Trevor he has pulled the advert cos all he got was a bunch of pratts offering dumb money for it. He has a load of stuff for sale on the classifieds,everone wants some thing for nothing,hes got some guy after the mono blocks,but knocks him down cos of no centre badges,then tries to knock more of for petrol cos he has to collect. Someone else is after the roof and we get his life story about how he cant get it at the mo because of personal reasons. So to be honest i can understand why he taken it off,and if anyone reads this and wants any of the stuff in the classifieds get in now cos thats all going to be pulled off after the weekend(350 sports wheels and s3 turbo manifold and no one wants them cant belive it) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lex Templar 349 Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 If someone wants that car they will not even look at the price. The right person will find it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

G_Reaper 170 Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 I would love to talk to the owner / seller of this car as it looks very like it could be one of the 3 pre production prototypes for the Esprit Turbo. They got their money out of the prototypes back then they used my ex bronze turbo to test the bronze paint scheme out for the bond film after that they used it as a test bed for the Etna V8 but it started out as a dry sump Essex car. It could be a prototype as I noticed the 5 stud rear wheels and four stud front. My car was the other way around. Can anyone tell me who I need to contact to discuss the car? Cheers Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lex Templar 349 Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 I believe the car may have been delivered with BBS wheels but the previous owner preferred the Compomotive wheels. I think the car was recently sold on with the BBS wheels, Nigel should be able to elaborate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
