Can you add the following info? Mileage, Year Built, Location in US, Asking Price, Tire Size and Wear?

Chassis is from 2000, Engine is a Zetec from a 1998 Ford Contour - had 12K miles when bought (The Contour was hit in the back). Tranny is a reconditioned T9 imported the UK. The car was built in 2000 and sorted out over the next year :)

Less than 2,000 miles on the car since (Main reason I am selling it - apparently when I have the time to go out and have fun - I tend to take the bike).

It is running 13'' Panasport 3-piece wheels (very light) with Yokohoma A032R on them - IIRC it's 205 all around - but I have to check - could be 225s.

Extras include a sump guard (would not want to drive one without it), removable steering wheel, all weather equipment, a Kirkey race seat (original is also included). Car was built for reliability first - OEM Fuel Injection - dyno at 122rwhp (probably 145+ at the crank).

Car is in Portland, OR and the asking price is $22K obo
