The throttle cable thing and vacuum line coming out of it tells me its a cruise control box on top of the original mani. Probably.

The whole inlet manifold looks different as does the rocker covers. I wondered if it had a 4.0 Explorer cologne engine fitted?

Terrible pictures, but my kind of Cadillac: two doors, front wheel drive, column "shift", cloth seats. And probably easy* to keep mpg over 20.  

Using man-maths it could also be considered "affordable" https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CADILLAC-FLEETWOOD-COUPE/143836487649?hash=item217d529fe1:g:tNwAAOSwuDBfrCbD

If i saw this parked with a £700 sticker on it , not in the window obviously , i'd probably drive past it but 7k , really , is that anything like what they're worth

I wonder if the for sale sign has anything to do with the van sale , I want 1/2 the house , you can do what you like with that .

Like I said 2.8 a brief stop gap between the old Bosch inj & new 2.9 efi.

I think it's the setup developed for the American market used in the bronco 2/ ranger & merkur Scorpio ( the later made in cologne).

While the explorer got the 4.0 ohc V6 & the cars got the 3.8 V6 ohv (a shortened version of the 4.6 ohv V8).

The last two company cars I had were Giulietta ‘s the new ones are nowhere near as nice as this:

Numberplate looks familiar. I wonder if this is the same one I saw running through Golders Green at the time when Northern Rock were experiencing some financial difficulties? Must remember to dig into the shite photo archive......

 

It is! It is the same car I spotted during the Northern Rock crisis! It hadn't been messed with back then....
