yep

Yea, the owner has had it since 1989 Im the 2nd- he used it on Sundays he did 2o miles every Sunday ..same road every weekend for 52 weeks
20x52x17 years= 22,000 miles.
The car has 35,000kms on the clock, the bonet has never been opened, the jack is still in its plastic wrapper as are other bits and pieces...log book, all service history..
The pedals show no wear whatsoever, the leather drivers seat actually had a nylon cover over it (see pic above) so did the passenger seat so its doesnt look used...straight out the showroom...Im terrifed to use the bloody car quite frankly...just stick it in a musuem haha
Over serviced..it was a 'company car' so whatever needed doing was fastidiously done by the dealership....can you imagine !!
haha
This is a very lucky find...I'm stunned, Im a lucky chap for sure

Richard,

Welcome. I'm from Hong Kong... a long time ago. One question, where do you drive it on those streets?

Congrats! Love the car!
What a deal.
That is a whole lot better than spending $20,000 U.S. on rebuilding an 80 Targa
What an education!
My office heard me scream on the phone,"How much do you want for a center reflector with black script"!!!!!!!

Hi mate -
There are massses of great drives.
eg From Central to Sheck O--or Sai Kung all along the coast road, early on a Sunday morning or in the evenings after 9pm some very empty roads. A new road to Hong Kong Disney, The Gold coast, up to Bease River - Jockey Club ...
Tai=Po country Park...etc


Thanks all for the generous praise ...I cant wipe the grin off my face,,,

I'll also add a hearty welcome. What a beautiful car. Cars like your that have been so meticulously maintained are rare. I'd be afraid to drive it too (well...maybe not )

Thanks for that ...

Right - especially in this city ...
The owner is returning to the USA and this is RHD - he must be pretty upset after having it 17 years from when it was 2 mths old ..

Yea Ive not seen this colour before...in Hong Kong anyway.
Im taking more scans tomorrow and will post the interior etc..

What about the Fuchless wheels...do you like the Cups or would she look more complete with Fuchs - I cant make up my mind---anyone nifty with Phnotoshop can put some Fuchs wheels on her ?
Cheers

Glad to hear you picked this one over that Tiptronic 964 cab. You won't regret it.

Believe it or not, there are some fun roads in Hong Kong, even a semblance of countryside!
