haha cheers yeah she's a bit of a keeper, though there's an equally tidy widebody Starion which is tempting me to sell up! All credit of the VR-4s condition goes to Kris [91 ZERO] on here who used to own it for yonks.

8O I have always had a soft spot for the 2000/2500's and that has to be the mintest I have seen outside a museum!

It's mint from far, but far from mint. $600 initial outlay, has been converted to carb (2000 SU's which are 1.5"!!!) so 1.75's and associated manifold off an S are going on it, plus some paint touch ups and rust removal. You can see the bubbles in the passenger door. Interior is not bad barring drivers seat and carpet, nothing a set of sheepskin seat covers can't fix.

My old one was immaculate in comparison.
