After months of scouring the ads, I found a Eunos that seemed to suit me, and the test drive was too much fun not to.
Here she is! Crummy phone camera, took a snap just before it got dark.
There’s a lot to love, but lots to work on. I’m sure there’ll be a fair bit of time and money before everything’s straight and true!
I fell in love with:
The noise.
The breeze.
Incredibly direct steering.
Dead level through corners, mega grippy.
Engine revs beautifully and pulls plenty enough.
Cobra seats are incredibly comfy for someone with a bad back. And as a tall chap, I fit perfectly in the cockpit.
Boot lid covered in scrutineering stickers from Prescott 
Pop ups…
“Character” that will need investigating:
Sloppy feel & movement in the shift lever. Rebuild kit?
Takes a couple of attempts to start.
Washer jets worked on the first use, but now don’t.
Glove box latch snapped when I went over a bump. Hinge already broken.
Sometimes hunts up and down for idle.
Door mirrors - driver’s side is seized in place (put some WD40 on to sink in overnight…). Might just replace both, not the tidiest anyway.
Level adjustment for headlights when down - don’t line up with bonnet lid.
I feel a little anti-social with how loud it is, and concerned having a visible bean-tin sticking out of the back makes me look like a teenager.
Any thoughts on the latter portion?
