It really pains me to do this, but the time has come for me to finally part with my beloved EK9... She's just sitting gathering dust these days anyway.

I'm sure many newer members here won't recognise me or know my car, but there's plenty of older members who can vouch for both me, my EK9, and the loving care, hours and extreme wedges of cash I bestowed upon her at every available opportunity. In fact I think you'll find that even now, ijwhiteman's signature still contains something of my legacy.

Now, I would really like to be able to sell the car as a whole, as it'd save:

A. Further heartache at having to pull the car to pieces

B. Me investing even more blood, sweat and tears into her

C. Having the money for her come in in dribs and drabs

But, since the money I make from selling this car will fund me buggering off to Asia on the adventure of a lifetime (read: not working for as long as possible) and since I have been working my arse off pretty much non stop since the age of 15 (I'm 27 now) I would like for this romantic little adventure of mine to last as long as possible. More money from the car = more cash for me = more wild adventures and memories that will be with me for the rest of my life. Simples.

So, having looked over the figures, I'm gonna have to go down the route of parting her out. So for all you parts hounds out there, there's gonna be a lot of very special bits up for sale, as long as any standard gubbins (yes, I kept every standard part too - that's how an*l I am!) that you might want.

Now for the boring bits:

Items for sale: See list below
Price: Varies, see list below
Payment: Paypal (as gift), bank transfer or cash on collection
Location: Hertfordshire/North London. I will be willing to travel reasonable distances if agreed first
Condition: All parts are used/second hand, but care/servicing of car/parts has been meticulous
Description: Please email for further description of any item
Pictures: Pictures of full car included, if you require pictures of anything specific, let me know and I'll get them taken and emailed to you.

PLEASE NOTE:

I WILL NOT SHIP OVERSEAS
ALL PRICES SHOWN DO NOT INCLUDE POSTAGE. THIS WILL BE ADDED TO ANY AGREED PRICE

Now, I do recall that the PM inbox on the forum here can fill up pretty quickly so I'm gonna request that any equiries are directed to my hotmail account:

maxhayter@hotmail.com

Send me any queries/requests/reservations for any parts there. If you see something you want in the pics or know something that I haven't listed just hit me on the email and we'll work something out.

Buyers Beware: I will listen to offers, but as many of the guys here who know me can tell you, I don't suffer fools gladly, so if you send me stupid offers then I'll either:

A. Tell you exactly where to stick it

B. If it's a really really stupid offer (yes, I've had them), I'll most likely ignore you completely

I will be updating this post as often as possible as and when bits are sold, but my intention here is to try and avoid a long thread, and answering questions in the thread, hence my giving out my email address. Unfortunately I just don't have time these days to keep coming back to the forum to check for updates. So please avoid asking questions in this thread and direct all your enquiries straight to my email account.

OK, now I've got all that out of the way, here she is:

GLWS mate, defo a minter and no expense spared!
 
Good to hear from you man - seen this car in the flesh and it's a great example with no expense spared. If I wasn't trying to repair mine I'd be all over some of these parts (even though it's a shame to see it be broken :().

Good luck with the sale bud.
 
Facelift passenger wing please mate, emailed.

Hi,

Your engine looms are both OBD2B correct?

What condition are the standard OEM mounts in?

Thanks

Dan
 
gutted to see such a mint car being broken :( i understand ur position though too travel u can only do once in ur life a car will always be there to buy again

all th best mate
 
Can u pm me your number bud want to talk about some parts easyier than emailing
 
Breaking of EK9s will only force the used car price up and parts prices down, I see it as a win win? Cheaper parts and a rarer car!

Tis a shame that its the nice ones that are being broke, should be some of the neglected ones first!
 
i knew it was coming since martins stagg do! good luck with it max love you man :)) also can vouch for the car and max sound fella... get the doobies n grolsch out !!!!
 
Cheers Matt, right back at you man. And to everyone for the kind words - parting with something you've loved so much is never easy.

I've replied to everyone that sent emails to me directly at maxhayter@hotmail.com.

My PM inbox is now at 94%, so for all you guys not reading the first post properly, you might wanna send me an email to the address above if you want a reply. Sorry to be a pain in the ass, but time is at a real premium right now, hence me having to do all this at 2:30 in the morning!!
 
Hi mate
I thought you had left for your travels a long time ago. Nice to hear from you again.
Anyway I am interested in buying your car before you rip it apart. You can keep all the mods as well.
Call me asap.
Cheers Dunx
