An MOT failure needing repairs, with no tax and suspected head gasket issue starting at 4.5K.

Tristars ARE lovely and that its a Syncro is even better but I think its very steep considering. I've seen them advertised for 4k in much better running order.

I suppose its the rarity of the RHD that may attract bidders.

Seems a very high price when you look at mine which is now all sorted and just needs MOT ( which if price is right I will get done as I see no problem as she is fine)

As before start the offers at £4,000. I am not looking for silly money just a fair price, we all know how rare these are in any condition and this one has a lot of history.

Yours is much better m8. Love the rims. Are they the Porsche/Merc pattern?

Hi Beaker

Wheels are audi I believe and I have got 5 of them so can rotate to even out wear though to be very honest they leak a bit round rims so need to be checked for pressure quite often.
