"Choose wisely and enjoy a real motoring gem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
126000 miles Valve guides required, Oil pressure switch failed 75000 miles, rear calipers replaced ceased 69000 miles.
General comments?
Brilliant engine, smooth and refined even after 130k. Still plenty of grunt when you wind them up. Gearing was a bit to high in first. Slightly too much body roll in corners. The leather seats were not as supportive as in my 626 GLX and the drivers seat tends to twist over time as a result of the offset driving position. Slight leaking from rear-view mirror fitting if your have the factory fitted sunroof. Workshop manual not easy to find. Fantastic car. brilliant engine, great lines, Sad to see it go in the end. Will be shopping for a replacement to build a track car and see what its really capable of.
