Equipment
2954/232hp single turbo, automatic, Goodyear Eagle GT4 tires, cruise control, power windows, rear window wiper, air conditioning, cassette stereo, targa roof.
Condition
Freshly serviced. All original and unmodified. Very clean engine bay. Excellent original paint aside from a handful of tiny rock chips on the nose. The interior looks brand new. Showing 25,677 believable miles. Probably one of the best on of these that exists anywhere. These were seriously overshadowed by the Mk IV that came after, which is a shame since these are attractive, fast, fun and reliable cars. The automatic is obviously a disappointment, though.
Market commentary
Cars that are all about performance but have an automatic naturally have a narrower audience, and although this is a great example of a model that is so often modified and driven hard, the reported high bid was not an unreasonable offer and should have seen the car off to a new home.
