Finished in Old English White and fitted with TWR body kit and twin headlights. Current mileage 32124 (warranted). The car is in lovely condition and has a new MOT November 2020. Recently fitted with a full set of new tyres and full service. A new battery has also just been fitted.

The car was born in 1988 and lived in the Preston area until 1998 when sold and subsequently travelled to Northern Ireland. The mileage at this time as recorded on the MOT certificate was 26291. In 2003 the recorded mileage was 30423. It was at this point that the car is believed to have been paid over as a debt to a person or persons unknown but was kept in a church building in Belfast unused until 2014 when it resurfaced. The vehicle was tested on 18th July 2014 with a recorded mileage of 30735 after some recommission work. The car was purchased by Select cars of Grimsby in 2015 and who spent some considerable time and money bringing the car up to the standard you see it today. The vendor purchased the car in 2016 with a recorded mileage of 31400. The car had been kept in a dry unit and has only ever seen the sun and never the rain in his possession. The bodywork and interior are in excellent condition. All the tools and covers for the top are still as good as new and the spare has never been used.

You can see that the car has been well looked and the interior is an absolute delight to be in. It is like driving a sumptuous armchair. During the vendor’s ownership he has changed the tyres and had the car serviced and oil changed as necessary even though the car has done little mileage. It is regularly started and moved around a few miles to keep it all working. The only one thing the vendor has not had done on the car is the electric wing mirrors are inoperable so need moving manually. The car starts first every time on the button and purrs along holding correct oil pressure and water temperature.

The car comes with a comprehensive history file (including the Northern Ireland registration booklet) confirming work carried out along with dated mot certificates warranting mileages. The private number plate will also remain with the car.

1 x Unused spare wheel and tyre
