Description

A rare opportunity to own a unique British open topped sports car.
This gem is nearly 30 years old but has the appearance of a very modern classic. Being based on the MGB, but having its own softer and smoother lines, it enhances the best attributes of the original classic.
The car was re-imported from Japan in2002 with approximately 17600 miles on the clock. The original odometer was replaced in 2002 and the new speedo now reads 27900.
The Oxford Blue colour is one of only 259 cars given this optional colour out of the total of 1983 cars produced between 1993 and 1995.
The car is currently kept in a garage.
I have replaced the black hood (2018) and have fitted four new Michelin 205/ 65/ R15 tyres (2022).
There is a folder which contains the service history, MOTs, invoices and photos from its re-importation as well as copies of Classic & Sports Car (July 2009 & August 2010) where the car was featured.
The bodywork is in excellent condition with no indications of rust apparent. The leather items have no splits or tears although there are some cracks to the varnished dash and door caps.
The engine starts easily and has a reassuring purr. The regular servicing, despite the low annual mileage, has ensured its reliability is not compromised.
The cherished number plate is included within the purchase price. I have owned this beautiful car since June 2013 and enjoyed many invigorating drives and shall miss it greatly.
There have been 3 former keepers since 2002.
