inside like new even with 25 years






bad news is, when another car is pulling it, ther's a noise in the gearbox, even at a few km/h (even à 2 mph)

Didn't need another car but price was low and the car was in rather good shape

phone pics, the first time I came to see it:












Bought it from the son of the first (dead) owner, price was 390 Euros because the gearbox was stuck in 5th gear and because the car had to leave, son of the owner had already sold the garage where the car was...
