Description
1960 Wartburg Saloon
This quirky saloon had a staring role in Guy Richie’s 2015 Movie The Man From UNCLE
Used in the chase seen across Berlin.
The car appears as a standard Wartburg but a Quick Look under the bonnet reveals a highly modified vehicle.
Fitted with 2. 0 Renault Clio engine with twin 40 Webber carbs, Volvo transaxle Transmission. GAZ suspension plus a whole lot more modifications this little car is a real street sleeper.
The bodywork and exterior is standard Wartburg, it has been fitted with a period roof rack and the boot rack.
Bodywork isn’t in fantastic condition, the car’s been painted black for the film, not the best paint job. It has some bubbling in places but overall it’s in presentable condition. The white sides appear to have been wrapped.
I am told the car was used in other films “but am not 100% sure which ones”
Mechanically the car runs and drives ok. It’s been stored for a while and the carbs could do with setting up and probably a good service.
UK registered with V5c
An unusual car and could be lots of fun.
Any inspection is well and encouraged

We are a small family run business with over 30 years experience in classic cars. We are passionate about all sports cars particularly convertibles. Over the years we have enjoyed meeting new people who are equally as fanatical about quirky cars as us!
We are mainly interested in British sports and saloon cars from the 1960s and 1970s, but can appreciate a good car from any era and often have a diverse range of stock.
Over the years we have enjoyed restoring cars which has given us a solid background and embedded us in a network of enthusiasts. In the last few years our direction has changed slightly towards hunting out classics, from barn finds to turn key beauties.
