    This is well appointed car in a rare colour. According to Ftyperegistry ( US Forum) there were only 9 coupe registered in the UK. It has nearly all options, at under 44 grand a hell of a car for the money. If you like Firesand the chances of finding another are slim. I've only seen one up close...

    Another area to check for corosion

    Hi Guys Might be just my Vehicle :oops: As I've stated this car is no Garage queen and has covered 45K in all weathers so might be a one off. Pictures below show what was described to me as a power stud found at the back of the front wheel arch drivers side (UK). Rust discolouration was seen...
