Description:Auctioneer’s notes: This car has been owned and MAINTAINED by the vendor since 2004 (18 years). The previous keeper owned her from ’86 – July 2004. Go back to the original buff log book dated 1955, it shows 2 owners plus Mead Motors Yeovil which was stamped in the buff log book in 1975 when they owned it. The old V5’s from 1978 -1986 shows 3 owners and add in the vendor and the previous owner, it is quite possible that this 67 year old car had 8 keepers including the vendor. These good looking cars could have 2-tone paintwork and this one has cream over red plus she has a rev counter. For the technically minded, the engine is a 4-pot OHV engine of 2267 cc producing 80 BHP. The “Motor Magazine” road tested this model and achieved a top speed of 93.6 MPH. Only 2250 were made. This particular car is very solid but does need some restoration. NB There is a spare engine complete plus other numerous spares which are free to the purchaser of this car. The new owner is responsible for collecting it. There is not a lot of paperwork other than the old log books and a few old MOT’s. The vendor says that mechanically she has never let him down and I think that this car deserves a new home and plenty of TLC. Do not forget to book your slot and view this sports saloon. |
