Looks fantastic - exactly the sort of thing I would go for if I were totally retired as a run about with a bit of "interest".

Edit - got me looking now!!!

Like this as well - I had a 416Si as a company car and i loved it. The SLi is a step up with full leather.

The 1.6 SOHC 16v Honda engine is an awesome beast.

My dad had an 'A' plate 213 when I was a kid, quite a posh car in its day. It was the same colour too, wouldn't mind that myself but..................no room, money etc etc etc

I loved those as an apprentice but that has the wrong engine for me, needs to be a 1.6 S series Efi. I remember the metallic painted cars rusting really badly due to stopping putting lead in the paint

Bullet proof little engine, but handling was dreadful. My first car was a racing green 213. Originally sat on 155/80 13's, I bought her some 14inch 216 vitesse alloys to improve the handing
