I'm going to miss it but I need to pay off my new Pursuit 250 so i'm putting my XR8 up for sale. I'm a mechanic and i've owned it for about 2 years/25,000kms and i've only used it for my drive to work on the freeway, no burnout comps or Tokyo drifting. Don't be too worried about the kms on it, it's a Windsor so it's just run it. Still goes hard, idles smooth and doesn't burn a drop of oil.

Here's the rundown:
-Factory fitted Tickford bodykit with highrise spoiler.
-Factory fitted AU style 'Explorer' inlet manifold.
-Factory fitted EL GT extractors.
-AU 65mm throttle body (also comes with AU70mm maf)
-New Exedy heavy duty clutch fitted 5000km's ago
-Engine oil changed every 5000kms
-Recent major service consisting of
Gearbox oil(TransmaxZ synthetic)
Diff oil(Penrite synthetic with LSD additive)
Coolant flush (Genuine Ford)
Fuel filter
Spark plugs, leads
Distributor cap and rotor
-Slotted DBA front rotors,
-Bendix pads front and rear 10,000kms old
-Koni adjustable suspension fitted 5000kms ago
-Lowered Pedders springs
-Nolathane bushes and camber kit
-Twin 2-1/4" exhaust system
-18" FG/40th Anniversary GT wheels in correct EL offset (will throw in a set of 16" Speedy 5 spokes because otherwise they'll just be lying around)
-Tinted windows
-Pioneer CD/MP3/WMA player with direct iPod control (connector in glovebox) -Jaycar Response 4x100 amplifier
-Jaycar Response 6" Coaxial splits in front
-Jaycar Response 6" speakers in rear
-Detailed 1 month ago with Meguires polish and wax

Don't have time to get a RWC for it so that's up to the buyer, only thing it should needs is tyres.
Willing to do a deal with/without the wheels or stereo. PM or call Richard on 0408324559
