B747 XNA - 1985 Manta B GT/E

More club cars

Owner: Allan Gilbert

I bought the car brand new in 1985. I keep the car in the garage and in the time I've had it its not had a lick of paint or even a touch up whatsoever. I also have an i200 and as I can only afford to keep one on the road at a time I try to switch between the two. The car has covered about 23,000 miles, as I don't use it for work, it usually only comes out at weekends or special occasions.

I first bought a Berlenetta si in 1984, I liked them that much then that we decided to buy a new one in 1985. The only problem I have ever had with this car has been a fuel - problem. The car had been in storage for a year or so when I decided to put it back on the road. It kept cutting out so I changed the ECU, the coil, and just kept swapping things over, I even changed the fuel tank. In the end after changing the fuel pump and filter, the culprit was a black plastic 90° pre-filter by the fuel pump, it was bunged up with sludge. Other than that it's been the perfect car.

Would you like to see more club cars?
