TheRealExile Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Needs some TLC but I do like it👍 Whar a shame the car has to be sold due to the clean air zone...wonder as it is stuck in the clean air zone you have to pay to drive the car out of there!

Danny D114BCW Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Making strong money considering the paint, rust and auto box. Great history though and a rare car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I'd move out of inner London and keep the Manta 🙂She could afford a nice restoration and probably a nicer house! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmist Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Not seen a white 1.8 exclusive hatch for years...must be a rare car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Very rare indeed. I thought they were putting 3 mirrors on them by 1987/88? I’d buy that if the circumstances were right! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not on 87MY cars, and just looking through the 88MY brochure, they didn't either. It was the first thing I bought after taking delivery of mine. I suspect this GT Exclusive needs stripping and resprayed after probably a lot of welding. One thing's for sure, it's worth saving! It's a well detailed description etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Yeah once you get in to it there will be a full recommission there, well worth saving for someone with the skills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Every 87/88 GT 1.8 I’ve ever had had a near side mirror. How strange! Even my first starmist black 1.8 gt exclusive had a passenger mirror. And that was an 88. Weird. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny D114BCW Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I like how on the poverty spec cars they didn't even put the bulkhead rubber on all the bulkhead bits. Talk about penny pinching. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
