"The owner drove the 300 kilometers to our depot without incident and recently received a new inspection/MOT. The car drives well and has smooth automatic gear shifts and strong brakes. The engine has an oil leak from the oil cooler, the tires have flat spots, and one lamp bulb needs to be replaced."

Description

The owner recently purchased from a friend who purchased the car after it had been in his storage for 20 years. The car spent the majority of its existence in the Kumla area in the middle of Sweden and has only driven 1390 km since 2002, with the most distance done since it just had a new inspection/mot and drove 300 km to our depot. The car has been repainted at some point and still appears presentable, however if you look closely around the sunroof and roof drain, several blisters can be seen" See images." The underbody appears to be clean, with signs of previous welding and sill repair. Now that the car has been awakened and driven, it requires a value cover gasket and a small review, but it is otherwise nice and easy to drive.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    It starts easily and operates smoothly in the engine, transmission, and brakes. Tires with flat spots from 20 years of storage should be replaced, as should the oil cooler and a light bulb inspection. Although the alloy wheels are not original, they look great. It has a new inspection/MOT and is ready to go.

  • Interior condition:

    The leather interior is entire, but the worn and sun bleached back seats, as well as the dry leather and worn front seats, might be greatly improved with good leather treatment or recoloring. The carpets and headliner are in good condition. Good door cards with a minor crack on the right rear door. Instrumentation works well with a good dashboard and a small mark. The electric roof/aerial is not working, and the radio front is missing.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car's bodywork is straight and the paintwork is a nice shining black. The chrome work is in good condition, with slight oxidation in the rear bumper. "See images" for blisters around the sunroof, roof drains, and front bonnet. The underbody is clean, although there are signs of repair in the sills and rear boot. "See images" for rust on the lower inner wing under the bonnet.

  • General condition:

    After 20 years, this car is now back on the road and drives and runs fine; it just needs some minor engine and possibly cosmetic fixes. You can drive this car as is and repair it over time.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
