Lovely- The best colour combination IMHO.
I wish I had the available funds, but it would just be another extra car and I have too many of those already.
Good luck with the sale

More info as posted on ebay...
I purchased the car from Snippersgate in Houghton Le Spring in February 2006 as I was looking for something cheaper to run than an Impreza.
Service history -
After Sales service @ 1331 miles 27/8/97
A Service @ 6270 miles 2/7/98
A Service @ 12555 miles 26/1/00
B Service @ 15430 miles 25/7/01
Service History seems to incomplete here.
C Service @ 19553 miles 4/2/03
B Service @ 24857 miles 8/9/04
and I had an A Service carried out @ 29888 miles 1/3/06.
Some service stamps are missing but I have receipts. I also have receipts for various bits and pieces of work carried out. Cam belt was renewed @ 19553 miles and the first 5 services were carried out by Formula 1 in Newcastle where the car was purchased (I have original invoice). I also had the Master Brake Cylinder replaced in March this year.
There are a couple of wee bits and pieces needing done that I know of, these are - Boot/Engine Bay Release needs replacing but is still working, a new bleed nipple is needed for one of the front calipers and one of the washer jets appears to be blocked. Nothing too serious.
The worst of the stone chipping is on the rear-left arch where there is also a scuff in the paint.
The car has new mats from Elise Parts and I have a rubber mat for under the seats. The car will also be supplied with a "shower cap", touch-up paint and a couple of spare parts all supplied by Elise Parts.
I would recommend viewing where possible as you will probably find "cleaner" examples but nothing a good valet and a little TLC will not cure.
