Just thought I would highlight in case someone's after a tidy one.

(I'm not connected to the seller in any way btw. )

If only chum. biggrin

Someone will get a nice one - it looks like my old one but without the spoiler. And rather like combines. (Although I know it isn't his) can't help thinking I've seen it before though. scratchchin

The blue looks neat in the interior. The front spoiler looks softer that mine/your old one.

It's rather tempting to place a bid and have twins in my driveway. laugh

Must be an early Series 2 (late '87/ early '88). The front spoiler and sills changed and the wheels switched to the 5-spoke split-rims. Also the lower rear wing and bumper became one unit, whereby the wing was no longer a wing but an optical illusion. That carried over into the 400SE.

Mine came with the rear wing? I always figured it was aftermarket since the 400 wing looks cleaner and is at less of an angle.

The 400 wing does look neater however, and I'd like to fabricate a cover(s) for the mounting brackets on mine to make it look 100% GRP and give it the 400 look... it does look cleaner.

Interestingly enough, of all the people here that have gawked and stared at the car, at least a 1/2
dozen of them have asked me if the wing is adjustable. It almost makes me want to hinge the wing, enlarge the exhaust hole and put on some actuators just so I can say yes!...lol

NO SPOILER!!! I'm the chief leader of the no spoiler brigade!

Do you recon he just washed it?? I never really quite understood why people do that, wash their car and still have soap on the floor when they take pics!

Looks good though...not sure about the blue interior but looks individual so thumbs up from me!
