1983 Triumph Acclaim AS SEEN ON YOUTUBE SOLD
As you would expect the car is in excellent condition outside, inside, underneath and under the bonnet. It is a very straight and tidy example, however it is not perfect - there are a few tiny spots of rust here and there and some scratches from when the paint was new.
The car drives well and is deceptively fast, however I think there is a problem with either the timing or fuelling system which has the following effects:
1. Idle is lumpy - sometimes its too high, sometimes its too low.
2. Occasionally the revs can get too low whilst driving when the clutch is depressed causing it to stall, but it will start right back up with a bit of throttle.
I'm sure this is no big issue for someone who is familiar with these car, especially after you can see the amount of work that has gone into it.
Also needs a inner rev cable at engine end as it snapped so tachometer doesn't currently work (I have the broken bits to reference).
Timing belt, drive belt, inline fuel filter and air filter all been recently changed.
5 speed manual gearbox, immaculate tweed seats and period Goodmans stereo and parcel shelf speakers, although I've only been able to get static out of it.
MOT to October 2021 - will only need a couple more before being tax and MOT exempt!
Loads of paperwork including original dealers owners manual with period advertising leaflets, every MOT its had from 1999 and tax/ sorn documents dating back to 2006.
£3, 250 ONO
