Yes, it's carl grimsley (cg cars in Leicester). Used to belong to a long time 6 forum member.
Was one of the best 306s in the country
I do like Carls ebay name... 'everybody wants something'... Yes, too much money for cars in his case.
Did his £2.5k standard '6 ever sell?
Blokes an idiot if you ask me, tried ripping my mate off big time for a supercharged 6 205.
And I've fixed a hell of a lot of his work!

As have a lot of people
only had good experience from the guy sorted out a postal error after a parcel didn't arrive
I've only dealt with him once though
Opinions are mixed on cg cars. They dealt with my old black '6 no problem and I'll be using them again for bits on the Rallye that I don't wanna tackle myself.
As for the cars he sells he ALWAYS overprices them. He still has his standard low mileage '6 as no one would give all that money for it. And that moonstone one that was about the 2k mark is still listed on their site for sale.
As for this motor. It's major let down is the fact it's in moonstone not your usual black, white, red etc.
Secondly the last high boost '6 that was sold WAS black and had only done 4 miles since being built sold for around the 4k mark if I remember rightly.
'kin hell, thats some beast to reach 450+ bhp
Some mixed reviews on him then
seemed a very high price for something thats seldom used, i suppose he thinks that warrants the price....oh well, i just spotted it looking for a 306 donor car (gauging interest like) and was, i guess you could say, in awe of it...now its more of a meh feeling lol
I have to say that car is mint. I'm not exaggerating when I say the body work is cleaner than it would of been when it left the factory.
Still, it's only worth what someone will pay which isn't that much I doubt!
He didn't build the car. He bought it off the guy on the gti6 forum who did who owned it for ages and built it.
Never seen it in the metal but looking at past pictures etc. it is an extremely clean example and has never wanted for anything.
