Description:

Due to a change in plans I offer for sale my Beetle RSi Cup race car. I planned to race the car in Classic VW Cup but have since got an engine sponsor to upgrade my Mk4 Golf instead.

This is a genuine car with chassis number 26 of 60 built for the single make Beetle RSi Championship.  Multi point weld in roll cage with front triangulation to strut tops and bracing to rear beam locations.  Side windows and rear screen replaced with perspex.

I purchased the car late last year with a knackered engine and have since fitted my 2017 championship winning 2.8L 24v VR6 engine from my Golf.  The engine is a very low hours unit having been supplied brand new by VW and used for only 3 seasons racing.  Rolling road print out from Stealth Racing UK producing 240bhp.

Gearbox is an original 6 speed close ratio Beetle Cup box with LSD.  Again the same set up taken from my Golf after a very successful year in 2017.

Suspension is original Beetle Cup Bilstein dampers on all 4 corners which I had completely overhauled by Bilstein during the 2017 season.  Very rare to find these dampers.

Brakes are the original Alcon VW Motorsport calipers with floating discs on the front and new standard equipment on the rear.

Floor mounted pedal box with brake bias adjustment on the dash.

B&M Quick shift with extended gear tower.

I have a total of 10 OZ Racing 18"x 9" rims, 11 slicks & 8 wet tyres.

These cars were built to a high specification with bespoke hubs to allow additional camber, rose joints to replace outer ball joints etc.

The car has been mostly use to promote the previous owners business at shows in past 7 years and therefore has an excellent paint job and not the usual battle scared vehicle.
