Issues
• Coolant warning appears on dash and can be cleared when started (this is due to the sensor not being fitted to the metal fabricated coolant tank)

Owner Summary
I have meticulously cared and serviced the car with no expense spared. The car is the most professionally maintained, serviced, and upgraded Insignia VXR you will find in the UK currently on for sale.
I genuinely have chosen the right materials, fluids, and components to complement the upgrades and journey with the car.
All wheels are in excellent condition, the odd scratch / kerb marks are apparent on a couple of wheels, nothing drastic.
Performance on this car is amazing, clean, and solid. With all the right modifications, not only power, but handling and brakes have been upgraded on this car to really provide the complete top tier package available for the Insignia VXR!
It’s absolutely a very fun and solid car to drive, no odd rattles etc, you will receive single mass chatter when at idle, this is normal for any car converted to a single mass flywheel.

The new owner will receive the following (in addition all to the usual service manuals of the car): -
• A folder documenting the full Vauxhall Dealership service history
• All paperwork covering the modifications
Will not break for parts
Will not part exchange
No driver test drives, happy to take you as a passenger
Happy to take sensible offers.
The car is very aggressively priced compared to the stock / modified cars out there on the market.
Any inspection welcome, the car will be sat on the drive and will not move.
