If this is as good as it seems, it could be a great investment.
Far more reliable than the troublesome AWD R models which were it's successors.
Only downside for me, is the auto tranny: https://vancouver.craigslist.org/van...807604705.html | |

it's not "Dakar" it's "Cream/Canary Yellow"
Cream Yellow[38][39] – 2,537 worldwide including saloon and estate. Only 346 sedans in this color were imported into the United States; wagons, only 49.[38] Cream Yellow was marketed in the Australian market as 'Faded Yellow' to compensate for the unrelenting Australian sun. The Gothenburg boffins were aware of the 1990s paint technology, and the fact it wouldn't retain its deep luster over the course of time, and hence, the clever marketing descriptor, 'Faded Yellow' was coined. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_850

edit: Condor yellow on the Porsche 356 was similar. I love all of the above for the record.

The car that rocks the canary yellow best is the 2002. I think BMW calls it "Golf" yellow.
Of course the 901 suits the color as well.

I don’t think Kit Cars are ever a good deal... but honestly this is cool.
My best friend growing up had one when we were 14... the gas version. He never ended up getting it on the road. Had no idea an electric version was made. https://www.usedvictoria.com/classif..._32904182.lite

That is an odd looking car but not in a good way. That front overhang, fender gap and those front fender proportions.   | |

Don't see many of these. Absolute money pit but a fun and comfy one if you can get it for cheaper than asking price. This is the car Hammond should of brought to the China challenge in the latest Grand Tour episode. https://vancouver.craigslist.org/rds...802498570.html | |

There was already two Euro luxury/sport sedans.

probably a really good reason why a 120k vehicle can be worth less than 5% original value
even if most components are miraculously in working order, most of the gasoline will seem like it's evaporating (v8 + 4000lbs = 13mpg city)
