Nice car. And it LOOKS like it had some care.
Just some advice many forget to consider.
When these cars hit 100k miles the odometer resets to all zeros. So it's possible this car has 166k miles on it.
Often you see people swearing the car they're selling is still actual, original mileage which we all assume is UNDER the 100k mark.
No way to verify this UNLESS there's documentation to show the mileage is real AND..... true.
ex. on march 21, 1990 the car was serviced with 28,900 miles on it.
on may 3, 1998 the car was serviced again with 43,000 miles on it.
on november 11, 2001 the car was serviced again with 53,211 miles and so on.
Just something to consider when anyone is interested in a car of pre-100k odometers like today's cars are.

Hi `Craig,
Great to see you back home posting on the MCF : )
Below should help in your Question of the Day
Reserve price auction
Some sellers have a reserve price on their item. A reserve price is the minimum price a seller is willing to accept for the item. The seller is not obligated to sell the item if the reserve price is not met.
As a buyer you are not shown the reserve price, only whether the reserve has been met. (The bid history page also shows a notation when the reserve price is met.) Bid on the item as usual by entering the maximum amount you're willing to pay. If the amount you bid does not meet or exceed the reserve price, a “Reserve not met” message is displayed. Otherwise, your bid is displayed as the current bid. When the auction closes, the item will sell to the highest bidder who meets or exceeds the reserve price.
Example: The following picture illustrates a reserve price listing. Although the item has received a bid (arrow B) the bid did not reach the seller’s reserve price (arrow A). The seller is not obligated to sell the item unless a bidder meets or exceeds the reserve price. Therefore, no successful bid has been made.

It was not a question, it was a statement, "The reserve Must be Met, and from my observation, the Owner's Min Reserve was not met yet...
