Brand new clutch!
Considered by many to sit right at the top of hot-hatch hierarchy, these cars have taken on an almost mythical quality in the decades since the end of production. The fact that they were never sold here in North America only adds to their desirability.
This one is in very good condition, drives perfectly, and offers impressive performances.

Factory alloy wheels in perfect condition.
Sunroof.
Power windows operate just fine.
Very clean and complete interior. Reupholstered front seats with new foam. Slight wear on back seats. Red carpet provides a cool contrast to the cockpit.
The dash top, dash face, door panels and headliner are in very good condition.
Very nice paint overall, except small cracks around passenger door lock. It's the only flaw. Original color. I can’t tell if the paint is original, or not, but it's probably too shiny to be original.
A few recent invoices are provided with the car. There was at least 2 owners before me. I don't have any information beyond that. The last owner is a very good friend of mine, living in Corsica (France). (Hence the Maure head, the Corsican emblem, on license plates). The timing belt has been recently replaced, but I do not have the invoice for it).
Vehicle located near Portland,Or. Recently imported from France, sold with a clean Oregon title under my name. Just passed DEQ. (Emission testing)
