Is anyone out there looking for a G500 SWB?  Its not on the market yet but I might be tempted to sell mine.  RHD. 1999 Japan import.  83k miles.  Emerald black.  Cheers.

Ah....OK Mark.  There are a couple of pictures on the thread "New Car" plus the story about my purchase back in 2014.  Cheers.

Re: G500 SWB

Yes I bought it in Japan in 2014 and imported it.  I will check the Japanese paperwork to see what I have.  Headliner - had not noticed this before so just had a look.  I assume the headliner is some sort of plastic tray wrapped in cloth.  Cloth is tight but there does seem to be a slight dip towards the centre with the underlying tray.

Cheers

Re: G500 SWB

Big thanks to Steve

Been spending the weekend cleaning and fiddling with different bits on it, very pleased and with the bits doing Steve advised will be perfect for me.

Goes so much better than my 300 did, probably helps being a swb aswell.

Cheers

Tom
