History
Believed to have had just two owners from new and to have covered less than 57,000 miles, this car has been in the current ownership for around 30 years. For the last 20 years it has been stored in a dry barn and not used on the public roads but it has been run up and down the drive at least two or three times a year.
The bodywork on the car will now need some attention, especially the front wings. The interior is said to be in fair condition for its age, with all interior lights, radio and instruments working and showing good oil pressure and charging system. Indicators, side and reversing lights work but the headlamps are thought to need new bulbs.
Supplied with a V5 and still on its nice original number plate, 467 MCG, this would appear to be a worthwhile restoration project which shouldn't take too much to get it back on the road and could then be gradually improved over time.
