All Booklets / Owners Manual / V5 in My Name is Present.
I've owned it since 2019. It was my Daily Town / Commute Car until my retirement in 2021.
As you can see with your Vehicle Checks, it's virtually done no mileage since then.
The Paintwork is in Fantastic Condition and Presents Superby. I had three Quarters of the Whole Car Resprayed as I wasn't Happy with the Body / Bumper Paintwork.
I had a Custom "Spyder" Emblem made for the Rear.
I Fitted New 17" inch 8J Alloys, they remain "Non Kerbed".
Also adding a Colour Coded Rear Spoiler.
I wasn't happy with the Headlights, they were deeply Faded / Yellow in Colour, I purchased x 2 New Headlights Directly from my Local Toyota Dealership. These Headlights are still in Fantastic Condition.
The Rear Lights and Diffusers are from the Face-lift Model.
Lots of Maintenence completed, New Shocks, New Discs, New Calipers, New Handbrake Cables.
Serviced every year through my Friend.
Engine is Good. When I purchased the Spyder it was located in Southampton, I Drove it back to Leicester without any problems.
All Electrics Work. The A/C will need a ReGas.
The Only Electronic Fault, one of the Manifold Lambda Sensors was/is sending an error message to the ECU, my friend fitted a Lambda Sensor Extension Socket.
This error message was causing the Engine Management Light to Come On. ( Currently Off ) Only illuminates when you are travelling above 65mph / 3000rpm.
It's never bothered me as the Spyder was only used as a Town Car and never exceeded 65mph. A Quick Battery Disconnect Clears / Erases the Dashboard Engine Management Light. A New Lambda Sensor will solve this issue, if you wish.
The ride is a bit hard due to the thin 40 series Tyres.
The Fabric Top was checked when I first Purchased the Spyder, it's intact without any Tears. It does remain Dirty as I've never used the Spyder as a Convertible, I've always Loved the Look of the Hardtop in place.
The Engine Bay remains Dirty.
I had my Private Plate "L4DUE" Registered / Displayed on the Spyder.
This Number Plate was removed prior to this Sale. DVLA Reassigned the Previous J18GVT Plate to the Spyder, This plate is also Private.
