Rapierdave Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 looks nice, I believe from facebook it needs some work on the rear arches. £3450 http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C722935 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 "very rare car in totally original condition", apart from the Monza Recaros, five speed box and centre console, steering wheel and stereo that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANTAMAN Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 The wheels are interesting, i can't recall seeing this style before, they look like they could be steel & though not original (correct me if i'm wrong) they might be period correct. If was buying this Centaur and wanted originality i would change the seats, steering wheel & other minor parts, the stereo might stay if i couldn't get a period one & modify it for modern reception, the five speed would stay, it's such a sensible improvement. Opel by equiping later cars with a 5 speed admitted the car needed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stradacab Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 The wheels are the optional, very expensive and rare Capagnolo's. They are correct if you specified them to make a very expensive car even more expensiver 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the design of the wheels, but I'd keep them because as James says they are an original option , although I may be tempted to have a set of Rostyles for it as well.

Cavtastic Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I like it but cannot possibly buy anymore, front seats look ok but where are you going to find good original seats these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
