The Hard top is colour coordinated to the body and the Cloth hood in in excellent condition

Technical:

Mechanically this car is excellent , it sounds fantastic , and has been very well cared for , The vehicle has been off the road as part of a collection so we will do an oil and filter service and check all the brakes and levels before collection .

We have the Japanese Export / De registration document ( this is the document you would use for export and registration purpose, We have the Original handbooks , service books and service sheets which are displayed in the pictures, The Nova paperwork is also in the pictures showing all duty is paid in the UK . In Japan a lot of the service records are kept digital due to the Shaken testing system , this means not everybody keep hard copies , This vehicle will have been serviced in accordance with the shaken testing but we only have a few documents on the hard copy , There is servicing stickers on the car showing it has been serviced upto date and we will carry out oil and filter and check all levels before collection

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
