what options? mmcs is largely useless and recaro's are very hard to find!

Ohh I just realised, it is missing the best option of all. A big boot.

That's one of them. A clutch would be nice too, but at that price you could do a conversion and still be laughing at the price. I want a sunroof but don't know if I'll be able to find a wagon with one and manual. I can wait and get some seats put in of TM.

It's a damn nice looking car with the silver and sedan shape.

wagon + manual + sunroof isn't that hard to find. trying to find that in a galant is pretty difficult though...

Dave - according to mitsi only about 60kgs :)

Aren't recaros pretty easy to find on TM? It's the rails for legnum fitament that are the hard bits to find, I always thought anyway.

This is about what I want, at a price that a manual conversion would still be a good a option IMO.

they left all the good options off that one! ayc, recaro's or leather, clutch, hole in the roof, etc!

It's just a twin turbo v6 in a rolling shell!

Yep, but at that sort of price It's be affordable to manual it. Does have a hole in the roof according to the specs but the crap picture I can't confirm it. Doesn't no AYC mean a proper diff? Don't want leather unless I wanted to retrim it in a big way. But yeah wouldn't say no to recaro's.

I notice you didn't point out the dash though...interestingly

Some people say Type V's have an LSD at the back, others only after may 2000, and an open diff before that, not 100% sure myself.

As for the dash, I figured the white ones he has installed are so ugly I wouldn't mention it!
