History
One owner my cousin, and i am the second. The car was Purchased from Carols in Wolverhampton in 1989 by him . And he had the car till last year .It was given me for my birthday on the 23 Feb 2014. The last few years it was used as his runnabout and had a hard time out in the open . To make way for Nissan Z sports and BMW .And only rust is on the wing bottoms and one wheel arch at the rear,this is an easy fix. Work on it was numerous ie water pump ,door regulators, key barrels , speedo odometer ,brake discs and pads .The usual items that play up over 26 years of wear. Just passed MOT Tuesday ,and on my way home i found another water leak from auxiliary water pump .Water is a problem as the seals perish over time.All items to touch tend to break due to old age. Hope to get this car in the classic show in July. Thanks for reading .
