Description
Reluctant Sale – Fun, Reliable & Ready to Enjoy
We genuinely love this car and are only selling due to an unexpected opportunity to move overseas.
This is a reliable, well-looked-after vehicle that’s been a pleasure to own. It’s surprisingly spacious for a compact car and very comfortable to cruise in. Whether you’re driving with the top on or off, it’s a fun and enjoyable ride.
The previous owner added practical cup holders, and while the sound system has an old-school look, it delivers excellent sound quality and easily pairs with your phone. A brand-new battery has just been installed, and we have a full history of upkeep and maintenance.
Cosmetically, the car presents beautifully — no dents, no rust, and the paintwork looks near new. Additional Transparency / Recent Mechanical Check
For full transparency, the car was previously under offer and the sale did not proceed after the buyer arranged an independent mechanical inspection which identified a couple of issues.
Since then, we have had the vehicle reassessed and have obtained an estimate of approximately $1,500 to address the identified items. We are happy to discuss these with serious buyers and can provide the estimate if requested.
Between the original purchase price and the additional money we have chosen to invest into the car to keep it in great condition, we have spent approximately $13,000 on this vehicle. Taking this into account, along with the repair estimate, this is why we have chosen not to reduce the Buy Now price.
We believe in being upfront so buyers can make informed decisions, and we welcome independent inspections.
This is an honest, tidy car that’s ready for its next owner to jump in and enjoy. Key highlights: -Reliable with known issues -Surprisingly spacious for its size -Convertible – great with the top on or off -Excellent sound system with phone pairing -Brand new battery -Full maintenance history -No dents or rust -Paintwork in excellent condition
Happy to answer any questions — viewing will not disappoint.
