Description

This is a wonderful and rare car. It drives like a dream with all the power you need supplied by the 2.6l V6 petrol engine. I have owned this car for a number of years with the last two having it in dry storage. I parked it up when I went to New Zealand for six months and that is where it has stayed. It was fully MOTed when it was put into storage. It is now a project car as it has a couple of issues which need attention in order for it to get back on the road, so not currently MOTed. The two main issues are that it has an oil leak from what I believe is the rocker covers where it drops oil onto the manifolds. The other has a work around yet it really would benefit from getting properly sorted and that it the cooling fan doesn't come on of its own accord. I have a manual switch fitted so that the fan can be switched on when needed which is only when the engine is running while stationary. Other issues is some rust on the front wheel arches. Over the past few years it has had a new starter motor, catalytic converter, replaced cooling pipes around the engine. The interior its in reasonable condition being cloth seats of which there are 7 albeit the two in the back are for small people only. It is a lovely car and I believe that there are very few of this type left on the roads here. So I purchased this car from a good friend of mine back in 2017 and it took some time to sort out the V5 because he had misplaced it and being mates it took a while to get that done. It has been on a couple of road trips to Le Mans 24hr. This is a great car and with a little work it could once again be on the road and giving the new owner endless joy. The 2.6 V6 has plenty of power driven through the automatic gearbox. All very smooth. Next MOT due 22/12/2021, Silver, 4 owners, £950
