Peter M Posted 27July, 2018 Report Share Posted 27July, 2018 Guys don’t get hung up on the 2 years/20000km issue. There is much much more important indicators of condition than someone following the recommend factory servicing schedule of that era.

Morpheus Posted 1August, 2018 Report Share Posted 1August, 2018 Ok I’m really considering that C2 man coupe now - the one with the horrible wing. Has anyone looked at it properly?

"upgraded recently to the series 2 3.6 litre motor with only about 15,000kms" It has had a new engine - with all the pros (new engine) and cons (not original) that comes with... I always assumed it was sitting due to that + the worries of how an owner who would drive a car with a wing like that treated it... ?

Morpheus Posted 1August, 2018 Report Share Posted 1August, 2018 It does seem that way. I recall an earlier post about this car stating that the non matching numbers aspect would affect its value vs a matching numbers car. I just wondered if anyone knew of any other gremlin that might be holding it back. The guy selling it seemed ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I noticed in one of the pics from the inside of the car (pic 17) looks like the sunroof may not sit properley. Also I wonder how easily that carbon interior wrap comes off without damaging the trim Morpheus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
