Wanted: Eunos Roadster
JekRankin - 9/4/11 at 09:13 AM

Hi,

For the last couple of weeks, I've been on the hunt for a Eunos Roadster and thought it might be worth asking on here. Been to see a couple of cars now with little luck - both have been a bit rotten down on the sills.

I'm looking for a nice rust free 1.8, preferably with the Torsen LSD.

The reason I'm after the Japanese Eunos rather than the UK MX-5 is that I believe the Torsen LSD was not an option on the UK cars, but they were fitted on the common 'S' package upgrade on the Eunos.

Anyone got such a fine machine which they're considering parting with? If so, please get in touch!

Thanks,
Jek

you wont find one on here we are stripping them all to make cars

when i was looking for the donor for the exocet 1.8's were hard to come by for reasonable money, i think finding an eunos may prove even more difficult. having driven the normal 1.8 i would say it hasn't really got enough power to need an lsd.

Haha, that did cross my mind. I'm after one that's too good to break for a donor, however!


I think the LSD would come in handy in the wet. I certainly thought my 1.8 E30 could have put one to good use one on damp tarmac. :-)
