Eunos 1.6 V-Special - Recently imported from Japan
This 1992 Eunos 1.6 V-Specual was imported from Japan by us in April 2016 and as the Japanese do not use salt on their roads, its in excellent condition throughout. Its now covered just 100530km (around 62000 miles) and its present and only UK owner needs to move on to something that his teenage son can learn to drive in.
When we originally imported this car, the lacquer was suffering from years in the hot Japanese sun and was starting to lift off in places. we completely stripped the car and gave it a full respray in its original Neo Green. we also fitted a new Mk2 black vinyl soft top (complete with glass window) and had the tan leather seats re-trimmed.
The bodywork is in excellent condition with rust-free and original sills, floor-pans and wheel arches - in fact you'll struggle to find one with a better shell than this one.
Its just brilliant to drive too with lovely performance and fantastic handling. This one has NO power steering and the steering feel at speed is just wonderful. Suspension is completely standard and all the better for it as handling is excellent.
Specification on this car includes electric windows, air conditioning, stainless steel sill tread plates and a Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel along with matching gear knob.
This uses the near-unbreakable 1.6 115bhp engine and as is typical of these early cars, this one is sweet, smooth and really strong with a first class gear change – its a real driver’s car. As its a V-Special model, it also has a limited slip differential fitted.
This is an exceptional car and any inspection is welcome. Its becoming increasingly difficult to find a good Eunos in this condition and with relatively low mileage. Price is £5750.
