I am the 4th owner. The car has been on southern Vancouver Island since 2006, and I believe was on the lower mainland prior to that. Have a binder of receipts dating back to the 2nd owner (as far back as 2006).

The car has a clean title but does have prior claims from the first owner. It was repainted in ~2000, likely during one of them. This changed the car from the original Estoril Blue to a variant of Dakar Yellow. Extremely comprehensive coverage of the engine-bay, door jambs, etc. While I wish the car was still the original Estoril Blue, the yellow shows very well.
I purchased the car from an enthusiast who had the opportunity to move onto an S54-powered M Coupe. I am selling as I have not had the time to drive it as much as I wished. It's not a concours/show car, but it is a clean and cared-for example of a 'clown shoe'. I'd have no issues jumping in and driving it across the country. Open to PPI's for serious buyers.
