You certainly don't see many (any) in that colour in the UK. Very nice, and looks very original

I cant seem to find any other RHD examples in the UK myself but who really knows lol. Car was ordered by someone in the Armed Forces to the NAAFI in Germany going by the Service Book. Car is nice and straight but has had a re-fresh on the paint. Someone has fitted Candy Stripe seats instead of the original Grey/Black so trying to sort replacements. Did have a later Steering Wheel also fitted but a replacement 4 button is on route.


I was thinking it was a squaddies car. Mine was too.
When did it make it to the UK?
Registered in Germany May 87 and brought in to UK Dec 87 registered UK Jan 88

Back in the game after 6 years in another MK2. Managed to pick up this RHD 87 3dr 16v in Racing Green Metallic last week and had a ball on the drive home. Its possibly known on the forum already as its had a few owners and with the history and the way the car has been looked after I'm sure a few were enthusiasts.
