The Appeal
The next best thing to a bright orange BGT is a bright orange BGT where someone else has done all the restoration work for you. Here is just such a car, a very pretty Blaze Orange chrome bumper car that is ready to use and enjoy.
The car has recently had nearly £12,000 spent across the bodywork, paintwork and chrome fittings. The chromework is nearly new as is the black leather interior and there is a useful Webasto folding sunroof. There is also a very detailed history file including MOT records back to 1978.
BGTs make great and usable classic cars. This one has that big sunroof, recent expenditure and the promise of a fresh 12 months MOT for the buyer.
