Just spotted this Plus for sale at "Eclectic cars" in the rare sprint blue (well, rare for a plus anyway).

Anyone know anything about this particular car?

Just down the road from me - might pop down to take a look, they have some great stock, that E34 M5 is yummy.

Edit to add - the Merc E36 AMG is awesome too - I'm definitely off down there!

shame about the errors:

otherwise the bodywork stands up well for a car that is coming up to twelve years old.

Original equipment for spoke 'turbine' style alloy

I have know doubt that it will easily

got bored at this point, still 8/10 for effort smile

or right, slightly off topic, why not one the 20vt, as imagine the engine gets very hot let alone the turbo etc, the more cold air the better

Nice, but overpriced. Definitely looks above average condition though, and at 60k, just about ready for things to start going wrong!

Lovely car though, if he shifts on the price, there's a good car for someone who likes Sprint Blue.

Supposing the pics are a fair representation, I reckon for a plus in that condition, mileage and through the trade, that's a fair price. Room to haggle with the rocker cover but other than that, not bad.

That has to be the best presented website I've seen, talk about thorough! The Coupe looks in great nick apart from the rocker cover. Do they all do this on the Plus'?

Interesting to see the Merc AMG, a mate of mine runs C & N customs who restored it.
