GBE Front mount intercooler for a 220/420.
This was fitted to my 220 Coupe before the engine died!
Retails at £425 new, I am looking for around £250
Thanks

I have had a fair bit of interest mate via PM. First one to offer £225 can have it, which also includes delivery (UK).

If anyone can confirm this fits without losing the standard fans etc, i'll have it. On the web site it doesn't say how its fitted and if anything needs changing

Not sure mate as when I had the car it had slimline fans fitted, Grant should be able to tell you as he sells them brand new, I think the e-mail address is on his website

Pretty sure they fit with standard fans but you have to lose your bonnet catch?
or at least modify it

I didnt need to modify the bonnet catch on mine, looking at
www.gb-ent.com it says using this intercooler retains the standard bonnet catch

So am I to be honest, this is the one part I thought would sell quite easily
Anyway this GBE intercooler was fitted to my 220 Coupe for around 5000 miles before the engine died!
Retails at £425 new, I am looking for around £200 or nearest offer
Pics now updated with measurements of the intercooler.....

Can anyone confirm this is a straightforward fitment?
Uses standard fans, no modifying of the bonnet catch or chopping the bumper?
