not sure if this has been posted before but $15k for an 86.5 with 64k miles seems like a screaming deal. the car is crying for different wheels, though.
also, as I was browsing i stumbled on this ad and did a double take when I read the end of it...
Something must be up with that car. It's been up a few times since you first posted it. It has a great color, no rub strips, looks clean, low miles and only two owners. My guess is that the seller has a high reserve. But this time he says it's priced to sell. We'll see.
Sold cheap! $9200. I know the mechanic and he said it was s nice car when he did the last $2100 service on the car. What should an OB auto go for these days anyway?

Always liked the car, but it just seems like the sale never goes through. Price is fair if the car in person meets the pics. The blue interior can be hard to tolerate if one doesn't like the color (like burgundy interior for me). If I don't already have a completely restored '79 auto in a better color combo (petrol blue/cork), I would've been on this.
If it was an '78 or '79, it would've been sold for $13-15k without a sweat.

I agree with Hoi but to add my own 2 cents as well. In addition to the 78 and 79 increasing value, a stick would have helped. A change in interior would go such a long way. Picture it with Pascha.
Also, this car would really do well being marketed properly. The seller did a decent job with pics and info but it really needs a professional to bring it over the top.
I like the car. Considered it but the fact that it has been on the market for a year or more caused me pause. This car needs to be put away before offering for sale again.
Been searching for a keeper for a while, I've ruled out all pre-89 years because of their odometer issues. If a nice one with under 50k miles pops up, I'm on it.
Becareful what you wish for . I may have an 1-owner '89 auto with only 22k miles (backed up by carfax) with perfect interior available for sale if you are serious!
Auction:
Manual gearbox; just one registered owner from new; £6,000 recommissioning in 2017; extensively stamped service history from new; a remarkable example and an opportunity unlikely to be repeated any time soon
^ Nice looking car, really like that color and Uni-Stoffe interior is in excellent condition! Needs an original radio and top end refresh to take this to the next level. I didn't realize the that they carried the one-side mirror into 1980. Was that normal?
Good candidate for a restoration. One owner, relatively low mileage '78. I spoke to the original owner over the phone a couple of years ago. I'll bet the rubstrips and rear spoiler are just held on by adhesive, but obviously I'd want to check it out first.
