E46 B3 3.3 Cabrio #118

Post by Bob » Mon Apr 26, 2021 4:05 pm

This looks like a very fairly priced B3, in a lovely colour. Wouldn't be surprised if this ends up with a dealer at that price, but going off the recent MOT might need to budget for suspension overhaul at some point soon.

Agree, that's very cool. I know exactly where it is too - recognise the pub!

The colour Scarab green looks nice. Is it that rare chromic colour Nissan had the Primera GT in a few decades ago? Was it called Chroma flair?

Don't think it's quite as extreme a flip as the Nissan colour but along the same lines, anything from purple/aubergine in overcast light to green in the sunlight I think.

I don't think we should be discussing Datsun's on this forum :idea:
But jokes aside, chap in north London has a lovely example of a similar car. Paint looks nicer in the flesh (regardless of the fact his is spotless!).

Hopefully a private buyer, at that price I could easily see it ending up on a forecourt for twice as much.

A private buyer has taken this one. BMW enthusiast! Unsure if he will say hi on here but exchanged some positive messages regarding the car. Glad its gone to a good home.
