VIN decode confirms as well so maybe 1980 was first year for itNovember 15th, 2021 at 3:05pm ESTmkrafty (3) Seller 0@570TE It's a 4 speed automatic according the specifications I looked up.November 15th, 2021 at 2:42pm ESTmkrafty (3) Seller 0@570TE My apologies for any mistakes in the ad I used my previous partner's description and there are apparently some discrepancies. November 15th, 2021 at 2:40pm ESTmkrafty (3) Seller 0@570TE Not sure about 3 vs 4 speed transmission. Steering wheel is not plastic. No idea of miles in Europe. Shifter is not leather. What is TMU?November 15th, 2021 at 2:04pm EST570TE (8) 0Also, I thought the 4-speed auto trans arrived in 1981. Are you sure this isn't a 3-spd automatic? Steering wheel and shifter appear to be molded plastic and not leather...November 15th, 2021 at 2:00pm EST570TE (8) 0Odo shows 61k MILES since the US conversion. Any idea how many kms were on the original Euro odometer when the car was imported?
