Those are not 1971 seats (to say there is a lot of use of the word ‘originality’ in the blurb).
Needs checked out carefully as obviously been through some kind of resto.

I hate to be a sceptic but there are all sorts of alarm bells in that ad.

Rust on top of the rear wing is the biggest. That’s likely, though not certain, to be a very expensive inner wing repair.
‘Starts relatively well for an MFI car’ means ‘doesn’t start well’.
‘Actually quite oil tight for an early 911’ means ‘leaks oil’.
‘Fusch wheels’ means ‘I don’t know as much about these cars as I’m pretending to’.

I suppose £40k isn’t loads for a 2.2E in need of some money spending. So long as you like the sporto targa thing.
