Detail by owner
It starts every time and will cruise at, and above, highway speed all day long. It makes a perfect classic rally or event car. I've done three classic car rallies and several big road trips in it, including to Bonneville Salt Flats. The car does isn't perfect there are a couple minor issues. The car has served me very well, it's a great classic grand touring car.
