Hi rotorboy65 if you are ok, could you go, see the car for me and give me your opinion about it.
Normally, I\'ll come this saturday and go back with the car but your advice is the wellcome.

Hi mixter
had a look at the car this morning it looks very nice just a few small marks on the paintwork but didn\'t check underneath. Have added some photo\'s for you.

Surely if this is a genuine UK spec FD then it cant be too hard to trace its history?

There were only a few made werent there?

Good luck bud

Sorry for not getting back to you Mixter, hav\'nt been able to get on here for nearly a week. Been so busy at work 7 days a week and all that. Anyway I see Dave has come to my rescue. Thanks for doing the pictures Dave.

The car looks nice and rare to see a UK spec version, hope you get on ok with buying it if you are still going ahead with the idea.

Hi Dave yep long time no see, I hav\'nt been to any meets for ages local or otherwise. The car is still off the road, yeah I know what a nightmare. Hope to see you sooner than later...........cheers Leigh.

Hi everybody,

I came back in france, with the car, but the mechanical condition is not so good: the car is in my garage because of a dead second turbo, and many dangerous leaks because of the horrible condition of oil and coolant hoses.

I will have a lot of work on the car before taking the road.

Don\'t buy any car at this "quality vehicle seller", he doesn\'t answer to the mail I send him yesterday....

Hi Mixter
sorry the car is not as you thought but hopefully you can sort it as soon as possible, the lads on here will be great with any help you need, and the vendors at the top of the page would be a good place to source any parts you need.
Dave.
