They have some known issues with electrics, mostly fuse panel and relay board, also some of the switches are known to have problems. The 3.2 is the best of the series IMO, just make sure you have good service records that are verifiable. If the owner says it had a certain service but there is no record of it. Then it did NOT happen.

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has any advice on purchasing a Mondial. I'm looking at a 1987 with 23000 miles for $25,000.
Other than getting it inspected is there anything specific I should be looking at or generall issues with that year?
 
Thanks a bunch!

Rick

If my memory serves me right, the condenser is on the front passenger side corner, separate and away from the radiator.  Also, it has its own fan.  I do not believe by removing it will make any difference on your radiator cooling.  If anything you would remove some weight J.  Worth the effort, your call but if you or a future owner ever you should ever what AC this could be very helpful.  Just a thought……

On the 308s, the Condenser is the 'mini-radiator' that is in-front-of the real radiator - is this also where the 328 Condenser is located?  Removing a Condenser involves the removal of the radiator (they are bolted together).  On a 328, you have puller fans, the radiator, then the condenser?  You may just wantt leave it - digging it out would be a chore, and there's a line that runs through a fender to an area just below your windshield you'd have to trace and remove.

After years of paying out money and struggling with my A/C, I finally
took off the compressor.  It works fine, I just had too many leaks
for it to work right.  Anyone interested in a compressor?
Now that I no longer have the compressor hooked up, I would like to
take off the condenser.  Anyone take one of those off?  If so, what
does it take to take off the compressor.  I suppose that with that
off, it will also help with the cooling.  Thanks.
Jim
