Fully working window switches – find that on an MX3!
Drives really well, the little V6 makes a fun noise and it handles precisely. All works – lights, heater, dials, stereo, fogs, windows etc. Happily drive it anywhere.
As you can see from the photos there is a lot of lacquer peel and fade on the wings, doors, front bumper, roof and quarter panels. It would look as red as the photos if you polished it. These are current pics but it's more pale in real life. The bonnet and rear bumper are OK. A few bits of rubber trim need sorting, sunroof is bubbling (not leaking) and the whole car just looks a bit sad. It’s solid where it matters and the rear sills were done a few years ago. One arch edge is starting to go but it hasn’t crept into the inner arch.
It was serviced 1500 miles / 2 years ago and had crankshaft sensor and rocker gasket too. It's been unused since April 2021.
Great youtube project! Fun little car. Mechanically it shares a lot with the MX6 / Probe / 626 / 323 so service parts aren’t troublesome to source.
There’s a folder of history, manual and V5.
Collection from Hailsham, East Sussex.
I will listen to sensible offers.
