The Poseidon Blue one off TradeMe? It's sold now I believe. To you?

I've got a couple of them, including another Poseidon Blue one and a racecar. And several parts cars.

They're generally pretty reliable cars, with the only expensive things to really worry about being oil leaks from the head gasket, and occasional gearbox synchro issues. And maybe rear trailing arm bearings, which can be a pain.

Aside from usual maintenance items on a 25yo car, there are other little things that crop up. But nothing to really worry about (assuming it's not spent time in the UK and has no rust).
