Description

Thanks for viewing the add, after recently purchasing this as some summer fun for me and the wife, the car has developed some issues that we just can't financially see through. It has blue smoke from exhaust primarily from initial pull away and when cold, when speaking to a specialist I'm told valve stem seals are a common cause of this. Also the power delivery seems uneven mainly at around 2500 rpm but unsure of the cause. I've made enquiries on the issues but not had anything formally diagnosed as the car already owes us so much we just can't see the repairs through which is slightly gutting. Please see this car as an opportunity to repair basis and not a car in fully working order. It is drivable but I wouldn't want to do a long trip in it so I recommend trailering away. I have been as honest as I can and I hope someone can see this though as the car in general is a tidy example. Due to work commitments it is best to email me first but if I can answer a call then I will. Please get in touch if you have any questions. Thanks
