Located in Antrim.
It’s an Auto, no mention of interior colour.
I’ve contacted the chap for more info, but he’s not very forthcoming with anything more than the price at £40,000 and a couple of pics, which I’ve attached.

£40k eh? Non sagging headliners are extra ;)

It's a black interior judging by the extra pictures in the advert.

to many new parts to list
Surely the seller knows any clued up buyer would want to know what has (or hasn't) been done to the car. Seat covers for example look new, but they sure aren't OEM, or even DMCH repro (and don't look to be that well fitted either).

I’ve just rechecked and yep he’s added pics now.
Agree, ‘it’s black.
When I first spotted this, there were zero pics.

The emails I’ve had off him are one liners and doesn’t seem to want to communicate at all.
It’s a shame because more info would be welcomed on a £40k car!

Let him crack on I say, he'll have a hard time selling it without being a lot more forthcoming with information. A bit like the guy who was trying to sell that unregistered car for £35k a couple of months back.

Aye, good luck to these guys pushing for £40k
(I think there’s now 3 up for this price including this one)

If it pushes values up. Cool :-)

(not good for me when I need to buy though! :-D)

Can’t edit the original post,
But here’s some extra info I’ve just managed to glean:

“Injection system replaced front to back
complete Full new brakes
Serviced regularly
Seats recovered
Chassis good
panels good”

Vin 11761, owned by Ken Henderson. Some of the N.I guys would know more about the car. Would have been at the last Eurofest and I also think it was at the factory workers reunion. Ken is probably on the forum

Kuwait cars had 'higher BHP at factory' apparently. Maybe a speedo in kph makes you think you're going faster...
