@11after9 congratulations! I´ll be in touch with you shortly!
@SamSI not sure if my response posted, in any case, I´ll repost. AC blows cold as it should.
A little more about this car. I purchased this car in Madrid, Spain form the original owner who was a bit too old to drive. Unfortunately his DL had not been renewed. The original options list from the dealer is included in the gallery with options such as AC, electric sunroof, rear headrests, and metallic paint. It all totaled about 5 million pesetas of the time, which would now be about 30k euro, or 35k USD. Back then Spain had high import taxes, so he was charged an extra 31% of the purchase price of the car, making a grand total of 7.2 million pesetas, or about 42k Euros. This was a lot of money for 1990's pre-Olympic economy. So he was very well off for the time. It always remained in the city of Madrid and still wears it's original license plate (not the actual metal plate), as when this car was new, it was not yet mandatory for EU countries to have the blue country distinction, in this case the E for España. But the M for Madrid, four numbers and two letters are indeed original. If you have questions, please feel free to ask. And yes, it is an absolute joy to drive, and the 5 speed changes the C124 completely. Good weekend to all!
