The car had been left on a neighbours driveway for 8 years before I purchased in September 2022. The previous owner before this is a close friend and the car was driven daily.

I have spent the last three years working on the car to bring it to todays standard.

Car has had a serious spend on it and I have spent countless hours working on it. It works flawlessly and it is a true joy to drive.

Things to note:

Small scuff on rear bumper and paint is starting to bubble on nearside rear quarter near door.
Alpina splitter has chips and needs re spraying.
Clutch has not been done in its life so will be required in the next 10k miles.
Stain on passenger seat needs work to remove. I have cherished this car for many years.
I have many fond memories that myself and my family recall including taking my friends to school and myself today doing the school run in this car.
The car cruises so effortlessly and makes commuting enjoyable and I hope the new owners will be just as happy as I am owning it. I will be sad to part with it but I am ready for my next project.

Any buyers interested please feel free to message any futher questions, details and photos. Car is now SORN and is in dry storage on trickle charge.

Thanks for reading.
