foggy147 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Very very nice car that, nice and subtle styling just like it should be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keron Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 wayne....few things i noticed straight away as ive had a lot of dealings with lhd and conversions.... it used to be a non turbo..it has no abs...(look in the engine bay) and on the bulk head where the old na earth strap used to be on the drivers side. so prob wont have traction control either, just a switch that does nothing?? To me it looks like it may have had a bump (front panel change) on the front as the front panel seam looks over done with seam sealer. (red circled) didnt read the milage but i would guess its high? seats are too worn for the car but probably been swapped over from the doner car? front pass indicator bulb holder has fell out unless it has the preface lift looms in and they dont fit the facelift clear indicators.... there are too many over there converted etc...as they dont have chassis plates on the inner wing like we do over here, you cant read what the specs are on the plates! iirc they do have a sticker on the inside of the door/door shut with the details on....

trinitom Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I would stay away from this one. something doesn't look right. the rear lights seems out of place, big gaps etc... look at the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keron Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 well being around them for many years you learn these things...i have spotted a few more things but thought these would make wayne think twice? as for the boot gaps...that is more than likly down to them not lining it up properly when they took it off to paint it? easily done...as there is a lot of adjustment on the boot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 It's not nice at all. I wouldn't have said that if you hadn't changed your mind, if you like it then fair enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
