BA-DUM TIIISH!

It’s set in 1999, but since its all used cars, the cars go up to 1998.

Albatross Motors presents, more evidence that our engineers are just bonkers: The Albatross 570 ‘Sport.’ This incredible piece of engineering took one of our best Malaise Barges and souped it up to an insane degree. It’s powered by a perfectly adequately sized V8 engine producing 255 horsepower, with power going through the front wheels. The suspension has also been upgraded, allowing it to… well, not rip up a track, but close enough. If you are insane enough to want to buy this, please leave $9,173 in an unmarked envelope underneath the third chair from the door in the Albatross Motors Used Car Department. Someone will contact you using a withheld number.

(my calculator still works just fine)

this is the infamous “let’s go fast but not too fast” of the time for people that wants to go all out, anywhere, anytime, without breaking anything. not the car, not the bank, not even the speed limit. and since it’s so cheap and has limitless potential, the original engine is often found gone, but not with this one. it’s still in there. the screaming DOHC powerhouse is still in there and in absolutely perfect condition. barely any mods ever touched it.

Asking price : $ 6,481

Team Sunday Strikers

A group of former test drivers and racing team employees, now working freelance as amateur racers and mechanics.

Walter Thompson - Competed in the 1995 Great Automation Run and now seeks to prove his mettle against other drivers in the legal discipline of endurance racing.

Henry Norwell - Master mechanic from Oxfordshire who went on to found Norwell Performance Systems in 2000 after working in the British GT Championship for several seasons.

Pat Kingston - Team manager who has experience in the WRC but only turned his attention to circuit racing recently. Known to ponder the consequences of each tactical and strategic decision for minutes on end before choosing the one which works best for him… Most of the time.

Selling two Aeros vehicles:


1. 1989 Aeros Router GT
From the second year after the refresh that got rid of the bizarre pop-up headlights. Engine works reasonably well for what it is, a factory 3.7L DOHC V8 that was issued as a performance option (that, weirdly, got similar fuel economy to the base engine according to some).

2. 1997 Aeros Remex
Made in large part with Aeros’ Japanese partner (I forget the name), apparently to compete with all the other sports cars coming out of Japan these days. Unlike them, Aeros chose to market it on “value” above all else so it lacks many of the same creature comforts as its competitors (which is why I’m getting rid of it). The 3.6L SOHC V6 is a decent motor though.

1988 Armada Motors EVO RC Homologation Special - 9827$A

this is your chance to get your hands on the legend that never was. made to fit group b requirements, only never got to race. didn’t stop Armada from selling thousands of these absolute stonkers, bless them.

comes with a little Italian v8 for god knows what reason, updated with EFI for emissions regs. good for 243hp. revs to the moon, goes like stink. this one doesn’t have all the offroad doodads on it, even if the drivetrain is all rally underneath, but definitely potential. or could be turned into a real street machine. would defs blow away those Erin fanboys.

selling because moving back to 'straya and the buggers don’t allow LHD! call on +44 01632 ****** between 9am and 9pm. serious offers only, no trades.

1995 Hor Katana S - $9975

You know what this car is, crash course in case you don’t: 162 hp 1.6l I4, FWD, revs to the moon.
Been thrashed a little, but only 25k on the clock. Selling due to needing a more comfortable car for long-distance travel.

Clean, no obvious noises or problems, but it hasn’t been serviced in a while.

The Muses:
This is a ‘team’ made up of James Nurse, an 18-year-old who’s just got his license, and is trying various different forms of motorsport to see what he’s good at.
