356s are like 21 year olds, they all look good
£92k seems strong money for a later less rare car, even with right hand drive. The body looks straight from 8,000 miles away but lots of 'incorrect' details; leather covered steering wheel, collars & cuffs don't match (dash & body colour), tired interior, red accenting on the engine, weird pedals
Why no pictures of the underneath? Rust free 356 is an oxymoron

SA have much better weather than here and they don't have salt on the roads in the winter. Makes a big difference.Hugo 356 wrote:Rust free 356 is an oxymoron

But then again they have a lot of cars live on the coast and that is just as bad as salt on the roads. A dealer near me brings in mainly Fords from SA and I have seen some real rust free horrors!
