Collection! Nibbler goes south! I’ve never owned a car with a straight 6 so I bought one! Sight unseen…

Excellent purchase, in a really lovely colour. would be interesting to have tried this alongside a CX 25 GTi.

 

Having driven both…. The CX wins… even with what was basically an engine that originated in about 26 BC

What work does it need?

I have owned these on and off since 1990. My current ( and sadly last) has been off the road since 2010 requiring many hours of body restoration.

Unfortunately parts availability is becoming an issue - any trim will be secondhand. Even vented brake discs for EFi cars are no longer available - I believe you can get them specially made when there is enough demand but they are £600+ a pair.

It needs a service and some work with the brakes. It will need some minor bodywork in the future but nothing before an MOT. Will I find some surprises? Yes probably 😂 Interior is really good.
