"With its split windscreen, additional chrome accents, and tartan or textiles interior, this year's model is my particular favorite. This car just had a fresh service and review, so it runs and drives fine. It has just traveled 60 kilometers to our depot without any problems, and it is inspection/Moted exempt for life."

Description

The car was originally sold and delivered to its first owner in Stockholm and has since passed through the hands of 11 subsequent owners. The current owner acquired the car in 2017 from an estate sale in Göteborg and has only used it as a summer vehicle, storing it in a garage during the winter months. Due to limited use in recent years the owner has decided to sell.

The car comes with some old documentation and history, and while it has some rust spots and cracked paint, it still feels sturdy and boasts an original interior that exudes a nice worn charm. While some may prefer to restore the car to its original shine, the owner prefers to keep it in its current condition.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    This car is easy to start and boasts a smooth-sounding engine, with good brakes and a simple 3-speed gearbox. It has recently been serviced and is in a condition that allows it to be driven home with confidence. The engine would benefit from a wire brushing and repaint to improve its appearance, good wheels and tires.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is fully furnished and original, and it features great rubber floor mats that are difficult to come by. The front seat's weathered edges and sun-bleached fabric all lend to the patina feeling, as do the door cards and seats, which feature a traditional tartan and cloth design. Cracked the baker light steering wheel and the headliner has some moisture marks. Nice and comprehensive dashboard and instrumentation.

  • Exterior condition:

    The bodywork is whole and straight with a slight scratch on the right front wing and two tiny dents on the left rear wing. Some surface rust can be seen on the roof, bottom inner door edges, and lower rear wing edges. Looks good and straight underneath. It has been repainted to a fair degree, however there are flaws and spots where the paint is cracked "See Pictures"

  • General condition:

    Charming car to enjoy and drive as is or spend some time over the winter and fix some cosmetic fixes.
