Just bought this

Moondust silver........with added moss patina

Hoping she will clean up nicely as paintwork looks pretty good

Looks very promising!

Looks nearly as clean as mine

Hope it serves you as well as mine has done so far.

As posted above, will make a good car, all best.

Rear bumper looks correctly aligned so possibly had recent rear brackets. Tail pipe looks relatively fresh too. Best of luck with it!

Does it have a blower?

No. Its the 140bhp N/A engine. Probably fairly gutless but It's going to be a daily and dog carrier so not that bothered

Just as well, I guess, probably more efficient for pootling around. Great colour! Look forward to seeing it cleaned up.

As said, looks promising does that.
Nowt wrong with a 10v. Majorly under-stressed, so will soldier on and on and on.....
Keep us up to date.

As far as I'm aware both the 140bhp and 170bhp in later cars are 20V. Not collected yet due lockdown issues etc

Will update with clean car pictures as soon as I can
