Yes they are very hard to find and when u do its a bucket of rust :(
But this one was very nice :) didnt pay to much either got it for aprox 2000aus$. thats cheap over here.. asking price was 3300$
Its in good shape gearbox, rear axel and engine all very nice :) even the electronic stuff works..
*happy starion owner*

The real test is when there's nothing wrong with your Starion and you still buy another one - twice :wink:

Nice acquisition at a great price!

I kinda agree... as I now have a '87 narrowbody. Quality of the car seems to be a step up!

That silver widebody I wouldn't mind adding to my list :drool:

:D

I believe European Starions did not come with electric side mirrors....a bit strange when they got the nice
leather interior, rear only ABS and cruise control..... :?

In Oz, the JA's had the manual mirrors, then electric with the JB model onwards.
