Lovely. I like ads like that, well written, lots of info and 'don't make me an offer unless your stood in front of me having seen the car'
Probably a ULEZ sale
That could only be more perfect if it had a bible in the glovebox.

I did spot a Haynes manual in the door bin though.

I’m not sure a bible would be the current owners preferred choice, but my assumptions could be wrong

Plates and exhaust look spotless. I'd have this in a flash if I were in England as I'm currently without car.

Central console seems to mimic that in the NSX of the same late 90s era.

Great ad and so much for the money- hopefully one of you will buy it.

1 elderly owner for much of its life, surely a wealthy individual who garaged and babied it with services.

Already gone. What was it out of interest?

My daughter had one - they're cracking cars for the money, on first impressions that looks like a good buy

Not surprised, it was a pristine 1 owner, 80k mile, top spec green honda Legend. For £2650. Looked spotless from the photos.

Interesting. Impressive mileage and fuel bills. The pale blue convertible is an E-Type.

Ok, FSH etc, but it’s a 20 yr old complex V8 that’s done a quarter of a million miles and he wants 5 grand for it?

Lovely car though.

(Looks like a convertible E-type in the background)

Found these off Google of the exact car even though the ad has now gone down.

For sure someone got a great deal buying it! Much more handsome than the generation that came after it.

I quite like this - proper old bus.
Think I like the cibie lights, the wheels (when clean) it's still being used, I think the colour actually suits it -
