Wanted Ariel Atom 2 with wings & carbon fiber

Brammo built only, please.

Fully loaded with Recaros a definite must. Shift light and oil accumulator very optional.

Thanks!

Matt

 

Sent!

 

LOL!



Matt

 

You can find the guy if you Google his details.

He hasn't responded.

Matt

 

Thank you both! Message sent to seller Sam.

(I really don't like that windshield.)

Matt

 

Unfortunately not.

It sold to someone who had flown to Utah today. I would have matched or beaten the price but it was already gone when I called.

Matt

 

It turns out that this was an Atom 3, not 2, and was asking far too much money.

They guy does detail some great old 12 cylinder Ferraris.

So... I'm still looking.

Matt

 

This one is a serious turd: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2007-ariel-atom-2-7/

No wings, no shift lights, no carbon fiber at all. Fully loaded with all of that, and in mint condition, should be between $60k and $70k. With several days to go it's still quite high.

This example is in a sorry state. Check out the crushed and faded Alcantara that has turned some shade of green. The whole thing would need to be re-trimmed.

But it could make a good track day car...

Matt

 

Thanks, but that's an Atom 3.

Matt

 

Thanks!

Unfortunately, it's also a Series 3. And also a fairly unstreetable race car.

But I very much appreciate the head's-up! I'm still looking!

Matt

 

Thank you.

Facebook seems like a terrible place to sell an Atom, but I just sent a message.

Thanks again,

Matt

 

So that looks like it was a fake seller.

After a few exchanges, I sent an email asking for photos of the footwell and the VIN/MSO stamp. The "seller" stopped communicating. I sent another to make sure the first one didn't get lost. Nothing.

Matt

 

I'm wrong.

The seller says he was away for the weekend. I got the photos I asked for.

It's not scent-free, but it doesn't smell as bad as it did last week.
