Davrian MK5 for Sale - Road going -SOLD

Post by marka357 »

This car was Sold 6 march 2019
Davrian Mk5 for Sale reg XUO459K
Offers around £7000.

First bought 1971
First registered March 1972

Bought by me 1978

I am selling the car because I use it so little and am finding it more difficult to get in and out!

Although it is a MK5 I am fairly sure it has a MK6 nose and I had a MK7 bonnet (with air outlet) adapted to fit.

I have owned the car for about 39 years but for many years it was off the road in a garage and hence the mileage is only about 33k.
The car is fully road going but its mot will expire in about 2 weeks.

Spec

998 imp engine with wills rings and large port sport head with R17 cam and multi hole sprocket.
It has not been adapted to run on unleaded fuel - I use additives
Weber 28/36 DCD carb on what I think is a mangoletsi inlet manifold.
Exhaust manifold and silencer made by P D Gough copying Janspeed examples.
Oil cooler fitted with a thermostat.

Standard imp transaxle.

Standard imp suspension front and back with for some reason 1 half shaft the thicker size.
Spax adjustable shock absorbers all round, the front with adjustable spring platforms.
Revolution 6 X 13 wheels.
Brake servo fitted. Still using drum brakes
Front radiator but no heater.
Individually switched SU fuel pumps
All windows except windscreen are perspex.

The headlight pods do not have a raising / lowering mechanism, I just put my arm through each wheel arch, lift the lights and insert a nut and bolt to keep them up.

Several people at Castle Combe event commented for some reason about liking the seats which are trimmed in leather.

The car is near Axminster in Devon.
