I’ll miss this car.
I’ll miss the grin it put on my face every time I opened my garage door.

I’ll miss accelerating onto motorways, under tunnels and through the countryside to the scream of the 2 litre flat-six through its Autofarm sports exhaust.

And I’ll miss sitting in traffic, window down, in the sunshine, sadly admiring its reflection in shop windows.

I’ll miss cleaning it for more time than anyone should really admit until it looked as good as the day I picked it up (two years ago following a full restoration by Nick Moss :wink: ).

I’ll miss the comfort of it's Recaro Sports seats.
Driving just because the sun was out.
And compliments from random strangers in petrol stations.

I won’t miss the speed cameras.

Hopefully I’ll be lucky enough to experience it all again some day but I’m off to work and live in New York leaving with me with no other option but to sell.

Serviced by Chris Turner last week, MOT’d last month and ready for a summer of more of the above.

£30,000

pm or email me on robbajob@hotmail.com for more details.

Yep, I removed the dog's head driver's mirror, swapped the front number plate for a stick on, but apart from that it's the same.

Some interior pictures.

The original Recaro Sport seats are listed on a copy of original sales reciept in the history file, I've put just 7500 miles on them since the leather was reupholstered. :wink:
