Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Recently inspected and roadworthy (April 2026), and most things work. However, the A/C is not cooling and the tachometer is not functioning. The ignition switch is somewhat stiff, and the engine idle is uneven and set too low. Despite this, the engine runs well, responds well to throttle input, the turbo works properly, and the brakes are good.
Noise can be heard from the CV joints when the steering is turned to full lock. There is no power steering, but the vehicle is equipped with cruise control (not tested). -
Interior condition
The upholstery is intact and presents well, with only a small tear in the rear armrest. The seats feel somewhat firm. There are a few cracks on the top of the dashboard, as well as minor damage to one of the door panels.
A centre console fitted with several indicator lights and toggle switches has been installed; their function is unknown.
The headliner has been secured with staples — a remarkably thorough piece of workmanship in that regard. -
Exterior condition
The car has been repainted at some point, with a few imperfections evident. There is paint overspray on trim pieces and similar areas, and a number of scratches have accumulated over time.
There are a few dents on the driver's door and bonnet. The wheels are in good condition. The bumpers are intact but show various signs of use and minor marks. The aero kit is properly fitted and sits well. -
General condition
The body is fundamentally sound and shows no signs of previous repairs. There is some minor surface rust around the sill areas by the door openings, but otherwise there is little to note in that regard.
Overall, the car provides a solid foundation and would benefit from some care and attention to become a very good example.
