This Matra Talbot Murena is a left hand drive, mid engine 3 seater sport coupe made in the early 1980's. Various changes and updates have been made during its life and it is currently fitted with a Peugeot/Citroen 1.9 MI 16 engine.

I bought this car about 8 years ago with the intention of finishing and using it but have not had the time required to finish it. Therefore I have decided to sell to give someone else the opportunity to own and restore this individual are rare car.

Other points you need to know:

• I have the V5 registered in my name, receipts from work done and a workshop manual.
• I did have the vehicle running about 4 years ago. The last time I connected it to a battery and tried to start it, a few months ago, all it would do was turn over!
• The car is powered by the MI 16 engine with a modified inlet manifold and a 4 in to 1 exhaust manifold with a stainless steal back box. It also has a chipped ECU.
• The radiator has been replaced at some point along with the cooling pipes, which have been replaced with stainless steel versions.

• The rear trailing arms have been replaced at some point and are solid, this is a positive as these are known to rust.
• Adjustable coil over shocks all-round.

• The body work is fibreglass, it is sound but needs rubbing down and painting as it has faded and the paint is flaking in places due to time and conditions.
• The chassis is galvanised steel from new, it also has a good coating of under seal and is still solid.

• The interior is all present but will need cleaning and repaired. It has got a sparco steering wheel, it also benefits from central locking and electric windows.

It comes with a large number of spares including; MI 16 manifolds, ECU hoses, mirrors, headlights and other small engine parts (as shown in the photos).

This car will need to be collected with a trailer

Happy bidding to those who are looking for a new project
