High Spec Atom 4 For Sale on Pistonheads - SOLD

[geeforce]

Hi everyone,

I've just put the following car up for sale on Pistonheads:

https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds ... 3D10611098

It's a much higher spec than the ones on Collecting Cars, so if you know anyone who's interested, please share . No buyer's premium to pay either

Many thanks!

Jason

The description says "Ohlins TTX Adjustable Dampers w/ 2 Piece Springs".

Now I might be being -very- stupid (highly likely actually), but in the nice photo of one of those Ohlins, it looks very much like one single spring, and so since they're a spiral, only 1 piece.

Did I get that wrong?

[GraemeW]

I don't think so Phil (stupid). I saw that as well and zoomed in to try and find the second spring :-)

Its a fantastic spec though

It is, and set me on my own little quest of speccing, and I ended up £6000 less. I guess if you want to beat the queues, you need to spend more.

Hi phil4, no you didn't get this wrong. It was a copy and paste from the very first iteration of the Atom 4 options list. Was a typo at the time, which I then pasted into the ad.

Corrected now. Thanks for raising.

That was the car on collecting cars a couple of months back. Strange it is up for sale again.

Then it went back to the factory to have, oil service, remote brake bias, 350 power upgrade, carbon wheel arches, tomtom, carbon lights. Just that is quite a few £k so selling at £65k would make it a loss for the second owner.

Like you say Simon, it does seem a bit strange, paying just over £63k for a car, then having the above work done and putting up for sale at £65k

[phil4]

I've gotta say, they should have come here first. It's such a strange spec now for the money.

350bhp upgrade (~7K)
Lots of carbon (~£2K)

And then still not having anything like nice dampers. It's still a bit pricey for that spec. perhaps £8K over list?

He was after your old suspension wasn't he? A good choice, as starts to round this off as a better car.
