Description
I have owned this rare evo wagon since August 2015. And it is one of the few on sale at the moment. I selected it from japan and imported it through JM Imports.
This was my daily driven car for 7 of the last 10 years of my ownership hence the high miles. It has been an excellent and reliable car for me and has never let me down. I have driven it the length of the country, to northern Scotland, all around Wales and down to lands end. It has been a pleasure to drive and extremely practical.
The auto box (With a sequential option) is pretty good and makes for a great, easy every day drive. One of the reasons I chose it as it was my daily driver.
The vehicle was imported with 69k miles (111k km) and now counts in miles. It now reads 169521 so I have put roughly 58k miles onto it, which makes 127k miles total.
The car is completely stock. The only change i have made is an android head unit as the one from Japan wouldn't work in the uk very well.
I have had the wheels painted from silver to gold.
The car in general is in ok condition and comes with 12 months of MOT. But it does need some work to be truly nice again.
The paintwork on the roof has suffered somewhat from being parked under a tree every day.
The leading edge of the roofline is unfortunately rusting under the paintwork.
The rear bumper has had a bump on the passenger side.
The bonnet unfortunately got scratched and dented, the dent has been removed and the scratch repaired with a matched paint sample kit, but it needs a professional job. There is another smaller dent in the bonnet which could not be pulled out by dent less repair.
The windscreen is cracked above the passenger. But it is not a MOT failure.
Mechanically the car is good. However in the last 6 months it has shown an error on the AYC unit. This could apparently be a number of things from a bad unit to a faulty connection.
The keyfob for the central locking doesnt work but the central locking doees with the key this is a recent development :(
The interior is nice. A bit of wear on the driver's seat sides.
The car has never been smoked in. The rear seat was very rarely used.
The car needs someone who can take more care of it than I can now and love and use it more than I'm able to. I will be sad to see it go.
