1990 Mazda Eunos 1.6 - Mariner Blue
I have another pretty fabulous Mazda Eunos 1.6 for sale and this time its in possibly the best colour, Mariner Blue. This is an early example dating from March 1990 and its a car that we originally imported from Japan back in 2016. We carried out a lot of work at the time, eventually selling it to a gentleman from Glasgow who has owned the car ever since and has looked after it meticulously. Its in superb condition and the list of work carried out over the years is very long indeed.
Some of the highlights include black leather seats, a mohair soft top, refurbished ‘daisy’ alloys, reconditioned dif fitted, mk2 gearbox fitted, stainless steel manifold and cat decat pipe, Meister Sport coil overs fitted, at least two cambelt changes, serviced comprehensively every year, regularly rust-protected underneath – the list goes on and on and everything has been documented. I haven’t come across many cars that have been as well looked after as this one.
Bodywork is near perfect too. It has zero rust and the sills, wheel arches etc are in excellent condition. It has never been repaired underneath.
I still have the original Grade Sheet from when we imported it (it was a Grade 3.5) and we also have the original Japanese Export Certificate. There is also a huge file full of receipts for work carried out over the years. Its had just owner since its import (along with us as the first owner/importer). Its covered 191,000km but that should really be irrelevant as its condition is better than 95% on Eunos Roadsters out there, regardless of price.
I need to photograph this one properly and try and get across just how good it is, something I’ll attempt over the following days. Absolutely lovely car and if I didn’t already have an near identical car hiding away in my own collection, I’d be personally keeping this one.
**UPDATE: Sold within 24 hours
