Looks very nIce that, shame about the dreaded rear arch rust , expensive job to do properly and a lot of classics are being scrapped/ broken because of it.

Good spec, and pretty rare

yes the rust could be an expensive repair, well sorted in all other departments.

This is one of my all time favourite cars. Kept in spotless condition and sounds awesum.

Worth going to see and worth paying that little extra.

He's just being really picky when it comes to the rear arches.

He's a top guy but can be a little camp at times

this is simbs car, and if you knew simb you would go and see this car. he is being really picky there is very slight bubling but if he didnt say anything you would prob not even notice. the price is reflective of its overall condition which is SHOW CONDITION without a doubt. i promise you if you go and look at this car you will not be disapointed, there is over £10k spent on the engine alone. i have also had the pleasure many times of driving this car and it puts a smile on your face. i have also owned type r and this beats mine hands down. if you think its over priced but you are intrested why not go and see the car and make an offer you never know but if you dont ask you dont get. it all starts with a phone call what have you lost he can only say no. good luck with the sale simb. the alloys are as they have just come out of the box, not a mark on them.

Please don't think I'm trying to put a damper on the car, without doubt it is a very nice example, I only said about the rust as i have the same problem (very small bubbles on the arches) I know they will get worse on mine anyway if left any longer. I'm sure he's devastated to have to let it go, someone will have a very nIce car.
