The seller does say "it's a new engine according to previous owner" - doesn't necessarily mean it started life as a 4 banger though.

This year has utterly annihilated my finances or else I'd do it. Hopefully something similar pops up in a year or two. A V8 5 speed fox is on my bucket list for sure.

Oh yeah you right, my bad. I skimmed that line past the odometer info.

Looks like all Foxes had 4x108 all the way through '93. Of course, half the pictures you see of Foxes online have 5 lugs because that's like the first thing people do with them.

Add an EFI 4.0 and I’d drive that until the heat death of the universe. As long as it had AC (Texas - it’s a need, not a want. Like, required for life to exist here in the summer…)

There aren't enough fossil fuels in the universe to supply the 4.0 for its thirsty nature and oil leaking out of every orifice/sealing surface.

Part of its charm.

It requires sacrifice to remain in this world. Oil is that sacrifice, and occasionally blood.

With everything else starting to look the same this thing looking very different might actually make it good.

e: Most of the ones available are super low mileage. like 40k - 80k kms.

It’s a Mercedes underneath so take that as you will. I like them but I’d never buy an auto.

Any vehicle will survive forever if money is no object. Some people just pour money into maintenance and repairs forever and ever. There are jaguars from every generation, still on the road, and not by their own volition
