![]() Hi Lord Sward,
That's an amazing looking car. I still think the sandstone beige interior works really well with the deep reds, but you don't tend to see it all that often. I'm afraid I am really looking for a manual though. If it was, I'd have snapped it up! Many thanks for posting the pictures though. I will be going to the Pride of Longbridge though, so if you, or anyone else reading is going to be there, I'll see you there, with my 3 door K reg 214 : ) |

![]() I'll see you at Longbridge then.
Personally speaking, I couldn't be forced into a manuel R40, although the 190 I ran was alright. Two pedals all the way for me. |

![]() I don't think it causes any noticable fuel consumption issues either.
A few years ago, I was regularly jumping between a 75 1.8, a ZT190 and a 2.5Auto. It was always a pleasure and a relief to get into the auto. It just added a lovely 'waft' factor. You can go just as quick too, with a lot less effort. |

![]() Well, I'm still looking. Thanks to everyone who's been keeping an eye out, but there hasn't been anything that seems to be quite what I'm looking for yet
