Jacob's Inferno 225 Cup



Swaps for a 330ci?! Do want one, just cba with the hassle of selling and buying and taking the gamble so close to my wedding

I'm a very fussy c*nt but I'd buy this. Had the pleasure of seeing it through out both of Jacob's ownerships and it's very very good. No expense spared and looked after by Mark Black, which is more than enough for me.
Also seen how clean it is underneath when a god friend of mine built his exhaust which is actual exhaust p**n.
If I were after a Megane, I'd be buying this.

P.S Jacob is a massive homo and will regret selling it again.

To boisterous for Steve now.

Going in for mot on Thursdays and writing an add or posting my add Friday.

Taking a few hours ago sat on the drive, where it normally belongs. :(

Passed mot with zero advisories.

Two things I'm not over happy on was the lack of good tyre choice after I found a nail straight through one new tyre and the other that needed replacing.

So for the Mot, I chucked two budget tyres on the rear, £120 so not proper pov spec but with the lack of miles I do, they can stay on till I've got it sold, then will drop two new on to match the front when a buyer is in place.

With just over 7,000 miles since the last mot and me not driving it regularly the budget choice doesn't bother me to much.

Love these things, a million people want to buy it when it's not for sale, ad goes up and the tumbleweed has a run around the forum!
Good luck with the sale mate looks a decent car.

This is back alive and being treated.

A month not driving and feels great to be back in it.

Next stop properly clean/detail it. All of it. Wheels off.

Refurbished spare wheel.
Replace arm rest compartment.
Replace all four tyres
Get spoiler painted inferno
New number plate lights.

Smarten it back up again.

Picked up today and all seems fine, runs perfectly.

Big thanks to @mick@diamond proper gent for the help out.

If the engine does go, (touch wood) then I'm not entirely sure what I'd do.

I've been contemplating selling quite cheap, not for peanuts but enough for someone to consider buying it and bring its life back.

Or split and sell Everything then scrap, the only thing with that is, everything's to good to scrap [emoji30][emoji30]

Or send engine to engine dynamics and build it and bomb proof it.

I really don't know.

Definitely keep it Jacob, you missed it enough to buy it back again. It's a lovely 225, most of them are proper sheddy!

You need two cars so you don't get bored.

I do get the urge to sell mine and buy this off you whenever you put pics up like this!

Keep it though

Haven not driven this car in a fair few weeks, getting back into after driving numerous cars puts the biggest smile on my face; the turn in/out, power delivery, stopping power and how solid it feels when driving, I've missed so much.

Maybe quieten it a little with a centre silencer and that will probably complete the sound.
