Climate control works just fine! (is very good for hot brisbane days). A/C has new condensor/collector-dryer and has plenty of warranty left (Mr Cool, Milton).
The tyres are fantastic - heaps of grip in the wet, no excessive noise, feels safe cornering at any speed - good wear considering softness of rubber and where it's driven (Mt Glorious, Mt Mee, Maleny, etc).
Cruise-control (not factory) makes long-distance driving very easy.
Interior is blue trim and plastic - is in fair condition, digi dash all works, seats are in reasonable condition.
Exterior could do with a polish on the roof - there are no dints or damage - two rust spots (under petrol filler where flare starts and window surround above filler). Has the usual low-level scratches & nicks from road-driving in Qld. Glass is in fine condition (no cracks). Underneath the front, the left tow hook has copped a hit and needs welding bakc up to the chassis.
The interior needs some attention - some of the plastic fittings (vanes in vents, far-rear boot liner) are looking like they've seen too much sun - the dash has some small cracks on it. Carpet could do with a clean.
The door cards and trim were attacked by the previous owner to house large speakers - holes are covered with smaller speakers but they really should be replaced.
There's no stereo installed and the shitty factory speakers have gone into the otto bin. I figured anyone serious about music would put proper speakers in the car.
Car was repainted in Rockhampton before i bought it (off this forum). The prismatic flakes are subtle.
I was going to megasquirt the engine - but have decided to focus on the RA40 and other projects. Will come with info on how to complete thi, a ECU box converted to allow easy adaption engine loom (e.g. no rewiring required) and port in headers complete with 2nd-hand O2 sensor (ex-ford 4-wire).
It will be reluctant sale (i do enjoy driving it) but 3 registered cars is a bit much to cope with at the moment - particularly when one hasn't been drivenfor >12 months.
