Midas Gold Coupe for sale in the Netherlands

Post by Botulist »

Due to rather sad circumstances I'm putting my brother's Midas Gold on the market. It has been well cared for but (perhaps unsurprisingly) has been an ongoing project. He can no longer continue this project because of health reasons, so we're looking for an new owner to take care of it.

I'm not completely certain about the technical state, it was "almost' in driving condition the last time he worked on it. He has owned it for around 20 years and did a lot of repairs and improvements through the years: from what I heard and remember: fitted (MX-5) chairs, replaced the cylinder head, did work on the gear box, electric wiring (and hub caps :) ). Not to mention breaks and suspension. Officially it is white but as can be seen in the picture it has some yellowish discolouring all over, so it could probably use a new gel coat. We need to clean out the garage, so it comes with some spare parts (among which, a replacement windshield).

We're located near the Hague. I'll try to add some more pictures later on.

Hi, sorry to hear about your brothers health issues - must be a stressful time.

About the car. Is it possible to post more photos and an idea of the price? I'm guessing it's left hand drive?

Good luck with the sale in any case.

Rob.

Thanks for the kind replies and your patience, I have some other stuff to arrange so I don't read this forum on a daily basis. I did have the opportunity to make some more pictures.

As you can see, it is a right-hand drive car.
It has not moved for over 2 years so I don't know if it will start. The battery was not installed but stored inside but I'm not sure if it still works and I haven't tried. The tires were also flat, so I'm not convinced they're still Ok but they're now at 2 bars so good enough for rolling around.

I don't really know what a reasonable price would be but I'm sure that if there is an genuinely interested party we can work things out.
I'll try to post some pictures of the interior next.

Sorry for your brother that he can no longer work on the Midas.
I live in the Netherlands and am interested. Do you have a price in mind? Maybe I can come and have a look sometime?

Hi, thanks for posting more photos and info about your brothers cars. Looks a nice project.

I find using this forum chat difficult to use, could we discuss via email?

At the moment I'm researching how to import/register such a vehicle in UK. Do you know when the last APK was done? Also, is it registered as a Midas or Metro in NL?

Thanks,

Rob.
