Condition & Honest Notes:
• The bodywork has a few minor scuffs and stone chips, adding character to its classic look.

• The passenger carpet piping is missing.
Despite these minor issues, this car runs beautifully and has been lovingly cared for throughout my ownership. Chassis and key mechanical components have been meticulously maintained and upgraded over the years, with a wealth of receipts and service history. While I bought it as a 4. 0HC, I haven’t been able to verify its exact HC status. However, it still offers the powerful and thrilling driving experience expected from a classic sports car. The Rosso Pearl Red colour is particularly striking, and the biscuit and ivory interior is a timeless combination for a vehicle of this nature.
I have possessed this vehicle for just under two decades, having long desired one since I first encountered one at the age of eight. With a toddler now present, I believe it is time for someone else to enjoy the same level of enjoyment as I have.
This is a rare opportunity to own a true classic with very low mileage and extensive mechanical upgrades. Don’t miss your chance!
