Description:

Great condition GENUINE Rivage cabriolet, pulls like a train, lovely inside, not 100% perfect outside but you'll be hard pushed to find one in this condition at this price bracket and no way with power steering. I've seen a slightly better one, same mileage go for £8,500 but the main difference was that the forged wheels had recently been refurbished. Only a blue one on ebay at the moment at £7.5k but no power steering.  Below is the run down on mine (photos to follow). Any questions please contact me.

Standard RIVAGE Leather spec - cream OEM heated leather seats (never been re-trimmed  - ORIGINAL) but with POWER STEERING
Power Steering kit was added I believe in 1992 after purchase.  I recently replaced the PS pump and the belts.

Original Mats
Rear disc brake conversion (Vented and drilled discs) - much better at stopping now!!
New Discs and pads to front with goodridge hoses

Perfect underneath as you would expect for this late cabriolet


Small Modifications;
Electric Aerial
Cream Kneebar cover and centre console (makes the cabin look a bit bigger)

Window Switch, Electric Aerial Switch and Roof moved to Ashtray area of dashboard - can be reverse if required
Colour coded anti-lock plates

Bits to make mint
Original Roof from 1992 so has a few imperfections on the top - nothing major.  Small hole towards the C-Pillar point on one side
Tension wires need replacing on one side - still folds correctly though
'Rivage' stickers.  This is a Genuine Rivage but at some point in its life either in London or Wales these were removed.
Bodywork generally good but would benefit in a few years time for a respray to get mint.  I think with a quality shine you would be very happy.
