Black 1991 Eunos Roadster V-spec for sale. (1.6) which I have owned for just over two years.
The car was imported in 2004 and is complete rust free. Happy to remove rear sill plugs so you can see down them – they really are clean!
170000km or 106000 Miles
5 previous owners
Used daily without fault in the two years I have owned it and always garaged overnight.


Service history / receipts since my ownership including:
Regular engine oil + Filter changes.
Gearbox and diff oil replaced (Red Line Synthetic used)
K+N air filter
NKG spark plugs
Thermostat / Rad cap + Coolant replaced
Dunlop SP sport Fast response tyres all round with good tread left.
Auto link sports springs all round.
Polo / VW rear bump stops fitted to rear. (Common upgrade over originals to improve the ride)
Rear upper ball joint dust boots and new lower ball joints
Rear Pagid discs and Pagid pads all round. Brake fluid also replaced.
Cam Angle sensor O Ring + 14° timing mod done.

No HLA rattle
Can include an MX5 silenced De-cat pipe (Never got round to fitting it)

Bad points:
Small crease to passenger door.
ARB drop links could do with replacing (They make an occasional cluck when doing 3 point turns / full lock slow turns. Unnoticeable during normal / spirited driving)
Missing the wooden Nardi Gear knob – Replaced with standard Mazda black leather.
Driver’s seat base is badly worn
No proof of service history prior to my ownership -

It isn't immaculate but it is certainly one of the better Mk1's about!

Price: £1200

Tempted? - I'd say it is exactly what your fleet is missing '

I wouldn't be selling it but I have ended up with a van for various hobbies (Motrobikes) and it is a bit too sensible as a second car
