A good starter classic
Here we have a wonderful opportunity to get yourself a great British sports car, which lends itself as a great starter classic whilst also being quite rare. According to the HPi and V5 this Sunbeam, finished in what you may call British Racing Green with black interior with a black hood and a new set of black carpets, would appear to have only 2 previous owners.
It comes with a little bit of paperwork, which consists of some older MOTs, paperwork from the Sunbeam Owner’s Club and some written service history that is in the back of the owner’s handbook - quite a nice thing to see and was very much a thing of the day back in the 1960s and 1970s.
The specification would appear to be factory original, but please come and have a look at the Alpine to satisfy yourself that this is the case. It comes with period driving lamps, which look very fetching and finish it off well. The hood is of an age but looks serviceable and useable, and the vendor has supplied a new set of carpets. This is definitely something to view, there are not many about now and really do fit very well into the 1960s feel and are inexpensive to run and own.
