This car is not pristine, has needs but makes a good daily driver or weekend car. No mechanical issues whatsoever.
64K miles. I'm the 3rd owner. Does not leak oil, coolant or any fluids. Red with black interior. Porsche 944 seats. Drivers seat has been reupholstered, passenger has not but upholstery comes with the car.
I bought this car about 9 years ago and had a little over 35K miles on it. It was not running (blown fuel pump) and had a stopped up oil pickup. Both of those items were long ago fixed along with a timing belt, water pump, cam seals, etc. Car had a head on with a deer shortly after being put on the road. Finally found a donor front end (clamshell). There was only fiberglass damage in the accident.
Upgrades: BCN shifter cables, Bob Brown short shifter, Piper precat eliminator, Bob Brown front brake conversion (subaru rotors, saturn calipers), Fiero low temp fan switch, Top End Performance blow off valve and intake piping, Kingsborne plug wires, Mercedes auxiliary water pump, full Samco coolant hose kit, O2 sensor, braided turbo oil line and also an Everest chip. I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things. I have all the original parts except the seats. Passenger side window regulator has been repaired and both windows have new sweeps.
Paint is NOT in good condition. Clear coat is peeling all over and the red is different shades on different panels. Kenwood HD stereo with upgraded speakers, all gauges work, AC works but needs recharging (R12), fairly new Firestone tires (maybe 1500 miles on them), convertible top is in "fair" condition but could use adjusting. Seals are ok. Top leaks (all Elans do) but some may go away after properly adjusting the top.
This car has NEVER failed me. I use it on weekends and occasionally commute with it. It gets around 30 mpg (premium fuel only). It has NO mechanical issues. Clean title. I'm only selling to lighten the load. Too many cars and motorcycles and not enough time to keep up with them all.
