    F-Reg Phase 2 5GTT 'Pepe' for sale - needs a bit of work

    Meet Pepe.

    Some of you might already be familiar with him. He’s the Phase 2 5GTT I bought a while ago for a rally I hope to do to Monte Carlo in June.

    However, after much deliberation I have basically bottled doing it in a 5 with a standard engine, and opted for a B18ft for more reliability and oomph.

    I feel bad for poor old Pepe as I would've loved to give him one last hurrah, but it’s not to be. And unfortunately I don’t have the time or money to work on both cars. Plus he’s taking up room in my dad’s yard which my old man’s not overly delighted with. Ideally I’d like Pepe to go to someone who could give him a new lease of life rather than a turnip like myself.


    Here's a look at the little fella:
    https://www.rtoc.org/boards/album.php?albumid=1882

    Things that need looking at

    - Bumper mounts have rotted out so needs an hour or two welding. Have the bumper, side mounts and brackets
    - Front wheels camber needs adjusting
    - Has a grill with it but not the standard 5GTT grill (didn't come with it)

    - No GT Turbo rear badge (didn't come with it)
    - Driver's door dented/rusted down front edge
    - No Tax or MOT
    - Brakes need bleeding
    - Sod all paperwork other than invoices/receipts for recent work completed and V5 form
    - Tear in the passenger seat
    - Pepe’s been a bit of a slag with 9 owners
    - Could do with a respray as currently looking like Jason’s Technicoloured Dreamcoat

    Pepe’s strong points

    - All sills, arches, windscreen and boot recently welded and primed – shell’s in great nick.
    - Two new front wings
    - HPI checked
    - 80k on the clock
    - Original spec engine except for a new dump valve and air filter

    - New master cylinder
    - Dashboard is all good – no gauges and whatnot cut into it
    - Comes with bumper, grill (not original), side trim and strut brace that need attaching


    So there he is, warts and all. Sounds like a lot to do, but it’s not far off being a good little 5 again if you know what you’re doing. Looking for £850 folks. 07899738745

    Pepe has been sold. Look out for him getting a spruce up over the next few months.
