Very clean and tidy looking, lovely colour too. Got any plans or happy with it as is? :)

Agreed - nice and pretty rare colour.

I'm nearly 50 so no mods will be done. I will however be getting it totally re-sprayed at some point. I always wanted one for some strange reason. I have been all over France in it, and not so much as a bulb has blown. I like it!

That is fair enough, never too old /young but have your car the way you want it. Excellent you will be keeping her as mint as possible, paint looks good in that picture but I appreciate it is a wee one and they can hide sins well.
Like the travelling, something I hope to do at some point. Some have issues but as yours shows it is not the rule, sounds like you have a good one.

I think the guy who owned it before spent a lot on it to iron the faults out. I just had a cambelt changed and a full service done. The only issue is the really high clutch pedal, due to the master cylinder needs replacing. The clutch itself is fine. There's a few scratches and minor dings as expected. But he (Midge) drives superbly!

A high clutch is standard, maybe not as high as yours though. There is a kit for the V6's that helps this a bit as well as improving the whole clutch hydraulics but not sure if it's available for the K4's.

Hey! Nothing wrong with that! :D No rules on here with regards being too old for any of that ;)

Good to hear it's been good for you, mine's been pretty reliable in 10 years, only had a couple of issues that required recovery, seized caliper, failed clutch slave and dodgy starter.

Nice clean car you've got there!
