Evening All,

Was going to wait till Sunday when i know for certain if i have the car but its looking more and more like the car is mine! Insurance ends on the lexus on Saturday at 11:59pm and starts on the new Mazda one minute later Big Grin

Have already said that i will take it if everything checks out and its as MINT as it looks. Now i wouldn't normally be this keen that im going to buy a car before even viewing it but i have spoken to the current owner and he is sound. The car is well known on a MX5 forum and several members have said how MINT it is.

Here is the original add and some old pics.........

[COLOR="Blue"]1989 Eunos 1.6 - Mariner Blue - £2600 no offers!

SUBJECT TO VIEWING THE CAR IS RESERVED FOR DEMON

The car has full service history. Road Tax to 31 July and MOT to 21 Feb 2011.

The car is in excellent condition. Very low mileage. Last owner in UK kept the car for 14 years and no expense was/has been spared with servicing/sorting any mechanical issues etc. The car has covered circa 8,600 in the UK and was imported with 44,000 km on the clock, 36,100 miles total!!!!!

Always garaged and has seen very little poor weather. No rusty sills etc

The car has had a full conversion to UK spec (speedo, gearbox, rear panel & number plate etc)

The stuff I have done:-

New Arc Magic Chamber
Blue Mountney wheel (340mm)
Bespoke "Bridge of Wear" blue leather seats & door cards
Leather gear and handbrake gaiter
Polished Voodoo knob
Chrome gear surround
White dials (blue numerals)
JVC radio/single CD player
New door speakers
New headreast speakers
New Magnecor leads
Bespoke induction set up
Polished Cam cover
Timing set to 14 degrees
Polished engine brace bar
SS Cat back exhaust (less than 500 miles ago)
SS Silenced de-cat (less than 500 miles ago)
New Lenso RS5 wheels & Toyo's (new 500 miles ago)
Lowered on new adjustable KYB AGX and Eibachs
Car has been fully W.I.M' d
New Garage Vary splitter
TT Style/roll over bar
New Blue Mohair hood with zip out rear screen
Smoked black side indicators and markers
New Blue halogen headlights.

They don't come in much better condition than this!

Only reason I'm selling the car is because my back is buggered thanks to a young lout who ran me down in December 2009. I fully intended to keep the car as it is the best example I have owned but my poor mobility has put paid to that.[/COLOR]

Some old pics.........

and a recent one..............

[Image: car.jpg]


Been told that the underside is like a new car and the only thing he can fault with the paintwork is a very slight blemish in the laquer on the boot, nothing a machine won't fix Smile

He is also throwing in spare set of headlights, side indicators, leads, cambelt, jack, sideskirts etc

I was originally after a 1.8 but this was just too good to miss and the only difference is about 10 mph off the top speed.

Plan is to do a few little mods, new steering wheel, maybe flock the dash?, back to import plates on the front/back, engine dress up and just continue to keep it as MINT as i possibly can, which will be the hard part!!!!!!!

Already have the first mod waiting, New suede/blue steering wheel (£35) thanks to a stand at the Autosport show on Saturday.

Not long now.........

Would love to know what you guys and gals think......

only reason I mention the handbraake is that he seems to have a wirebrush chocking the wheels in the pics and his handbrake is not pulled up.

Im working on sunday so may have to drive down to you, ****** typical.

Tell me about it, been looking for a few weeks online and they have all been to expensive or just hanging. There are a few minters i missed out on but then this one came up and i was there like a bullet.

They say that its key to get a good chassis as the rust is the killer, engines etc can be picked up very cheaply from most places Big Grin
