Lovely car and I know its just personal opinion but for me its a shame it didn't have the bonnet louvres and side exhaust specified.


Cheers, Paul

A true garage queen.Watch out for problems of old liquids and rotten seals in a machine which was not run or used for years.

Side exhausts would be a deal breaker for me but I didn't realise bonnet louvres were an option.

My thoughts exactly, no mention on the ad of it ever having had a service. Easily checked, but disappointing if not.

I have never ever had an issue with super low mileage cars and I’ve bought many.

As have I, but they have at least had a fluid change once every few years at worst. This looks a lovely car and I would hope has seen some proactive care.

Full bonnet louvres were an option not often specified and certainly not as emotive as side exit exhausts. Personally I do think the louvres add a certain something and particularly from the driving position. One of the things that appealed to me about the Aero8 I have recently bought was the spec including these things, which were very much on my wish list.


Cheers, Paul
