My father passed away and left me his Titan Mk6 and a sports racer. I built this car to be my own and therefore went the extra mile in many respects. Unfortunately, having three race cars is simply one car too many, so this one has to go. I’m sure I have forgotten to include something. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!


Aside from stripping and refinishing the chassis, the car has more or less had a full restoration. My intention was to race it for a season or two to sort out any issues, then strip the car to repaint the chassis. I just never got to it; I was having too much fun driving the car! The suspension has been completely rebuilt using Aurora PTFE rod-ends. New 2” Spax shocks were installed along with D Faulkner springs. Uprights were rebuilt with new bearings. A new wiring harness was made and all new Smiths gauges were installed. A new dash panel was made and installed. The engine has approximately 8 weekends on it since rebuild. The cylinder head was freshened two race weekends ago. The gearbox has about ten weekends. I had the gear cluster out before the cars last race weekend and the dogs are nice and sharp. I fabricated a new oil reservoir, as the original was in very poor condition. I also made up a new fuel cell can and had Fuel Safe make a new bladder in 2017. Master cylinders are new and calipers have been rebuilt with stainless pistons. The engine cover is included with the sale. It has been painted and mounts to existing dzus tabs at the roll bar, but has no mounting points at the rear of the car. The rear anti-roll-bar was damaged during a testing day incident years ago. It is included, but not mounted to the car due to damage. The original seat is included, but would require the battery to be relocated to be used. The following is a list of what I have restored/replaced/modified on the car. Restored means fully disassembled, cleaned, paint stripped via chemical stripping or bead blasting, priming/painting, or plating, reassembly with new consumable components (rod-ends, bearings, fittings, hardware, etc), finally adjustment and testing. The car is being sold with an RMVR logbook.
