EXTERIOR:
Presented in Dark Silver with Black roof and mirror caps.... the bodywork is in outstanding condition. All original paintwork with no repair, the paint has been maintained with regular clay bar detailing and polish. No dents or scratches. A few very small stone chips to the front to be expected of a 21 year old car. The plastic fittings recently refreshed in Gtechniq C4 . The original BBS R90 alloys really set the car off. The centers still have the original paint which matches nicely to the bodywork and sit well against the titanium hardwear. The lips were refurbished before my ownership with a silver paint finish. 4x matching All Season tyres with good tread all round.
INTERIOR:
Full leather GRAVITY black heated seats all present very well, original factory mat set, Rubber boot mat, body coloured dashboard with full Chrono Clock package and chrome line trims make the interior a really nice place to be.

Recent work includes new serpentine belt and pulley tensioner, new uprated Radiator with full bleed, brand new battery, as well as two front wheel bearings. The car has been used as an everyday vehicle, with the latter mileage mostly using cruise control on motorway roads.
EXTRAS:
Over the years in my ownership it has benefitted from the following added extras to add to the driving experience. Direnza full stainless steel non resonated cat back exhaust system, Orranje Stealth cold air Intake (K&N filter recently re oiled), drilled and grooved Disc Brake Rotors front and back, Black Grille pack, stubby sports ariel.
PAPERWORK:
