comprehensive service record,
a very clean unspoiled interior boot and cabin , A1 mechanicals,
perfect tyre condition, and had a historic timing chain and
water pump change at considerable
cost. This is a very high spec example with many factory
options, only 57 sold in uk this colour.
Fresh in part exchange, owned by an enthusiast who has enjoyed
his car and hasimproved it in his tenure. It drives wonderfully,
with a clean free revving engine, its been set up well and is an
accomplished fast road tool.

Condition
HPi clear in all respects, no adverse history.
The paint is glossy and highly detailed with the odd mark but
you would need a magnifying glass, looks like a superstar. The
interior remains in superb order, the seat bolsters are free
from damage and the leather is free from nasty creasingwith the
inner foam remaining firm too, meaning she offers figure hugging
support
through the bends. Its a clean example. Starts runs and drives
as it should, plenty of power, sounds amazing. The exhaust and
ecu have been mapped in harmony.
On The Move
Mechanically this R32 has obviously been cherished. The 3.2
litre, 24 valve engine fires without hesitation and settles into
a smooth idle with exhausts gases leaving the engine via a Miltek
exhaust system bringing the engine sound alive, the V6
featuring a twin-outlet design. Out on the open road the V6
performs exactly as expected, with a wave of torque she pulls
strongly in every gear, there's
a lot fun to be had driving this 'wolf in sheep’s' clothing! It
feels like a Porsche.
Modern engines have no way to compete with the sensations these
characterful old
school units deliver on, there is a harmony here between man
machine and road that is rarely found, and this car has that.
Servicing
The service book is present with all owner’s manuals in the
binder. The service booklet contains 8 stamps this being the tip
of the iceberg. Recent service this year, the oil and coolant
are nice and clean. The haldex oil was changed recently.
Four recent tyres fitted just 1000 miles ago with a full laser
wheel alignment carried out. The gearbox and diff oil have also
been recently changed.
In the last few weeks in preparation for sale the previous owner
spent £1500 on diagnosed health check faults then diligently
responded to them all prior to trading in, testament to his
attitude to car ownership, this included ;
- New fuel pump
- New air mass snsor
- New vacuum pipe
- New exhaust flexi
Honest, well maintained and original well-presented example, all
tools in the boot, only one key and the soft leather owner’s
binder with driver and user manuals. I also have the oriiginal
first aid kit which is always missing. Ready to drive away. |
