Being sold to fund the purchase of an Alfa Romeo 145, this late model Y10 (registered in '92) is in sound overall condition but is beginning to show signs of rust. The doors are starting to bubble in places as is the tailgate while the metallic Candy Apple Red paint retains its lustre. Inside it's clean though the Alcantara fabric on the driver's seat is showing signs of wear. The GTie is thought by many to be the best: strong performance but without Turbo foibles.

The car starts on the button without smoking and acceleration is keen. There's little doubting the mileage is genuine, pointing to this being a well-looked-after car. It comes with a full service history and an MOT until November. The rust spots will need sorting before expecting it to go through another winter.
