Vehicle Detail

This car is a rare find - I bought it from the original owner's family, he was a dentist in Newport Beach CA. The car has always been garaged, as you can see by the photos. I have all the paperwork, including the original window sticker and ALL service records, original books and manuals, original tool kit and radio. I upgraded the radio (old one included), put in an alarm and a new Die Hard battery and service it religiously. The engine is excellent, it is a diesel, very economical to drive, and gets great mileage. The upgraded radio is a new Pioneer satellite radio with CD and new speakers were installed since this radio is much more powerful than the original. The 185,230 mileage is not high for this engine, they are known for lasting for hundreds of thousands of miles with good maintenance and care as this car has received. I had this car shipped to MD from CA and it has been garaged with regular maintenance which is why I get so many complements on it because it looks like new - original paint is good for it's age, small scratches and superficial marks only. It still has original CA plates and NO RUST anywhere (plates included if buyer is from CA). See photos, everything works, even the original clock in the dashboard - sunroof works fine, it works perfectly. The headliner, door panels, and seats are all in excellent condition, no rips, holes, or problems, even the cigarette lighter works for charging you phone. She starts right up on the coldest days, and runs great (these cars are not made for fast driving) it cruises along fine 55-65 mph on the freeway and will take anywhere you want to go. I hate to part with this car - I love it, but I have a truck and another vehicle and have to downsize. It is a GREAT collectors car. Please email me with any questions. The car is in the WA DC area, garaged, and available to look at by appointment. The buyer will be responsible for picking up or shipping the car, I will assist with the planning process my cell for messages is 916-261-8844. Good luck!
