Description
Owned by me since 2016. Restored by the previous mechanic owner for his wife who did not like driving it. Stored indoors for a number of years prior to me purchasing her, and has been dry stored by me while not in use.
Overall good condition. Tax and MOT exempt. Comes with workshop manuals and a mountain of paperwork/ receipts. V5 in my name.
Paintwork is mostly good with some minor scuffs, blisters, cracks and chips. Previous respray in I think BL Vermillion Red. Good brightwork, bumpers and Wolfrace slotmag wheels. Sound chassis that has had previous work on outriggers/ jacking points. Tow bar with electrics present but not tested.
Seats and headlining are in good condition, but could do with a clean, however, show no rips, sags or missing buttons. The dashtop is straight with no cracks or distortion. Carpets could do with replacing as they are frayed and faded in places. Comes with a good load bay cover in the correct colour.

A much-loved family member that used to get taken to lots of local car shows but sadly no longer gets used. She even featured in a car show organised by Car SOS! She pulls well and there are no known issues with the gearbox, steering or brakes.
I would recommend trailer collection and a thorough service before driving any distance due to lack of recent use. Located in Biddulph, Staffs.
Collection only. Cash or cleared funds on collection.
Open to sensible offers.
