(I film car commercials for a living… and lately, I am barely home, and I have no time to drive it).
It drives fantastically, and has had all the necessary modifications undertaken to make it an enjoyable drivers car.
It’s a very special car for me, but, time to move it on.
The car has been stored in my dry garage.
It has very sticky tyres on it, and the car drives and handles beautifully. It is an absolute pleasure to spend time in. A true, analogue driving experience.
I am selling the car, as I just do not use it enough to justify ownership, and I would like to see it go to a good home.
