This is an amazing car with super low miles, wish I was in the position to buy it.









More powerful European-specification unit with 185PS (182hp) at 6,200 rpm and 240Nm (177 lb-ft) at 4,500 rpm

25 pictures and details

The steering wheel is on the wrong side ! :doh::D:D
 
It's in reasonably good condition but not as tidy as you'd expect for a 55k miler/3-owner car.

VDO stopwatch broken, faded instrument cluster, peeling doorcards in the back. Steering wheel non-original, not sure what's happened to the hydraulic SLS - pump missing in engine bay?

Looks a little under serviced/not well maintained to me - engine bay and the car in general looks very dry/tired, bit of corrosion perhaps? Brake fluid is black.

Not the most popular of colours either.

Interesting, but could do a lot better IMHO :-)
 
The orange script on the speedo dial is inconsistent with the needle. I suspect the clock has been replaced at some stage when the trip meter failed(common issue)

That car has all the signs of a car with three times that mileage.
 
Mine is low miles low owners and the bodywork is just as bad as the high mile high owner one I had a few years back, mot ran out yesterday so its just going to sit about for a while until I decide on what to do, I've started collecting bits for a resto so we will see but its always interesting to see market prices, this one isn't my cup of tea I prefer cloth and blueblack never liked this colour too much
