Love that interior, rotary heater controls just look so right and I think are so much easer to use without taking your eyes off the road.

Hi Steve, I've first saw this post on Monday approx. 23:40 pm !
However, I've see you've made the /\ post @ Tuesday 21st 12:44 am (But it's now/still Monday 20th 23:59)
I think you've got your profile/settings in-correct for GMT (UK Location Winter time) !

I am interested in the car and asked the vendor a couple of questions about its history, rust and strut tops. Here is his reply:
Hi there,
Reply from my father, let me know if you need any other info:
With regard to struts . One had been changed (offside) and there is a spare strut available. Both struts are ok and do not leak. There is a mark on front bonnet . The spring clip on drivers door is broken (Thats the holding spring that keeps the door open). Nothing wrong with the engine but oil has been changed regularly . There are no maintenance records but have owned the car since 2094 and never had engine problems. Took car off road whilst it still had an mot but had bought a new C5. In good condition for age but one has to keep in mind originally reg in 1990. As far as I can tell there is little or no rust. Never failed mot due to rust .
It isn't too far from where I work and if it stays cheap then it could be a goer.

Owned 80 years from the future, wow get it! Might have a Mr. Fusion!
So broken check strap, good struts, bonnet needs a mop...
Buy it, drive it hard to loosen her up from sitting and remember to hold onto the door!
Hope you get it! Is certainly cheap at the moment.
