"Handsome, usable and unusual seventies Englishman in a surprisingly fine condition."

Description

The car arrived in Sweden via the general agent in 1978, but it wasn't registered until April 1979. It eventually fell under the care of an enthusiast whose heart beats for English everyday cars. He had the car's body completely repainted, and he also had the engine rebuilt. It worked as a project / editorial car for the magazine Klassiker from 2010 to 2011.  The magazine later gave it away in a lottery, and it ended up with a guy in Timrå, who sold it to a man in Löddeköpinge, and subsequently to the current owner outside Varberg. Aside from that, the car appears in the current film "Tuesday Club," in which Marie Göranzon plays the key character.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Lättstartad, lättkörd och fint fungerande i allt, det är en klassisk Mini hundkojedrivlina som sitter i och bilen är också omhändertagen genom ägarlängden av svenska hundkojeentusiaster sedan många år.

    Motorn är renoverad av den inom Mini-scenen välrenommerade motorbyggaren Per Malmberg i Nynäshamn.

  • Interior condition:

    The current owner replaced the interior with a similar original because the old one was too worn in the fabric. Fresh and clean. There are two minor holes in the headliner.

  • Exterior condition:

    It was repainted in the late 1990s and has been in good condition since then. It has a pleasant exterior in the original Sandglow colour.

  • General condition:

    A nice representative in good condition for British Leyland's late 1970s.

Facts about the model

Allegro presenterades i maj 1973. Mottagandet var försiktigt positivt, även om vissa klagade på den udda formen och den klena prestandan. En innovation som främst förknippas med Allegron är den kvadratiska ratten. Den hade tvärställd motor och framhjulsdrift. För den som behövde större utrymmen fanns även en kombi-version. Oktober 1975 lanserades Series 2, med fastare fjädring, bättre benutrymme bak och rund ratt.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • 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.

  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
