Please not on the log book it say date of first Registration 1969 . This is because when first purchased it was sent out from Germany to Ramsgate uk then the owner had it shipped to Tanzania. South Africa. When it stayed for 7 years until the owner came home to the uk . As he instructed it to be sent there as he had just secured a job . I find this a bonus myself being over in a dry country . It’s is definitely a Uk car with the correct chassis number . Any more information or pictures please feel free to contact me.
