Quick car really gets into it stride above 3,500 rpm, has the usual lumpy Sport 160 type idle. Not too loud still has the cat in place.
Obviously its an old car now with a fair number of miles and does require some TLC such as:
The interior could do with a retrim.
Alloy wheels refurbishment.
Boot release cable, and im sure some other bits.
Suspension is all knock free, it did have a creek coming from the anti roll bar bush but just had that removed and re greased.
Factory cobra immobiliser still working with both fobs, heater working on all three speeds, radio working, speedo/revs/fuel/temp readings all working as they should, windows both wind down ok.
Chassis is all straight, floor pan all dent few see photo.
Done a couple of recent journeys in the car one run over 200miles and today did a trip of 50 miles each way and it has recently passed and MOT however due to the age, mileage, the fact this is a no reserve auction it will be sold as spares or repair with no warranty.
Viewing welcome or happy to make a watsap video of any areas.
