Neat wide-bodied Kadett Coupé.
The car is driveable, but there are certainly various small jobs to do.
Originally delivered from the factory with metallic golden-brown paint and a 1.2-litre engine, it was fitted just under 20 years ago with a 1.9 CIH engine with fuel injection and a 5-speed Getrag gearbox. The modifications are recorded in the registration documents.
The colour was also changed to orange with added pearl effect. The widened wheel arches are fibreglass.
I have owned the car for 6 years, during which time it has covered less than 1,000 km. I have only driven it in summer.
The oil has been changed and other servicing carried out as needed. The Optima Red Top battery was replaced approximately 4 years ago.
It runs on widened Mangels steel wheels, and the tyres have plenty of tread.
Inspected in July with a 2-year inspection validity.
For the inspection, some welding was needed in the footwells and the boot floor, but these are now in order. There is one hole in the engine bay that should be repaired.
Remarks were made regarding headlight alignment, a broken upper ball-joint boot and an engine oil leak.
The rocker cover gasket is at least seeping, and apparently the crankshaft seal is also leaking slightly.
The paintwork already has areas requiring attention, as well as some general tidying.
The speedometer also does not work, but I have managed with a GPS speedometer.
The additional gauges are dreadful tuning gauges, and at least the water temperature gauge does not work, but the original temperature and fuel gauges are operational.
The heater blows hot air continuously if coolant can circulate through the matrix, but this has been dealt with by installing a manually operated valve in the engine bay.
The car will go into winter storage on 8 November unless it is sold before then; after that, the matter may be reconsidered in spring.
