Just Arrived *** More photos coming soon

We love a hothatch – proper little drivers cars that are hilarious at 50 mph, and this pocket rocket ticks a lot of boxes. With a bombproof 1.6 VTR engine delivering 90 bhp and a snappy 5 speed manual gearbox its got more than enough ‘go’ to have a lot of fun, but its not going to get you into trouble (well, not too much). To add to its charm, it’s not been ‘got at’ or modified at all, a lovely unmolested example that even has the complete and original parcel shelf – no speaker shaped holes here thank you very much. The interior is in superb condition and whilst it has the original paint, there is some laquer peel and areas where the paint would benefit from tidying up, we estimate that £500-800 would have this car completely mint.

We think these are the next cool, classic French Hot Hatch and this example has a lot going for it:

* Rare Phase 1 – only 11 cars are still on the road from 1997
* Covered just 73,685 Miles
* Only 2 Owners.
* Full bookpack
* Service book shows 6 stamps upto 2025
* Jan 2025 – major service including belt, water pump and a brake service
* Long MOT
* Unmolested & not modified
* Finished in rare Poseidon Blue
* Key Pad Start Security
* Motorcheck/HPI clear

A fantastic drivers car that would make a great daily driver or a modern classic for shows & meets…..while you watch the values of these rise over the next few years.
