To come with car:
Powerflex RTABS and lollipops -plus RTAB tool if you want to diy. Gearbox and Diff oils. Original Business radio if you want to revert and sell touchscreen (original box retained).
Body condition:
One minor scratch/dink on the bonnet, which you don’t notice unless pointed out. Otherwise presents quite nicely for an old bird. Oh there is a small scrape on the bottom of the plastic front bumper, but it's so low down you barely see it. Alloys are presentable but not mint.
Work required
Needs the plastic shield under the engine repairing/replacing. I think it’s letting condensation into the passenger side floor. Otherwise that will be the door card membrane - I’ve not had it off to inspect.
Full disclosure: I spilt 5 litres of emulsion in the boot last year (don’t laugh) and replaced plastic battery bay and carpets. A few bolts sheared when I removed bay, and will need drilling out. I have the new bolts ready to go. You can’t see them and the bay is rock solid, but should be done imo.
Stamped book up to 100kish (will check) and then serviced by previous owner incl spark plugs brake fluid (mechanic) and I did oil and filter in Dec, also cleaned MAF and the AFE filter cone.
Car is still rapid when you feel the urge and runs sweet, no stalling, overheating or any of that malarkey.
Photos to follow. I’m in Newtownabbey. Oh and it does have MOT until June - passed with nil advisories and has only done 500 miles since.
