Having only completed 2900 miles since February 2003, the car has been used sparingly since completion and remains in good order. The car as standard has an alloy bonnet, boot and door skins and as it was manufactured in 1968 so could be entered for some of the more prestigious classic rallies. The vendor tells us it is mechanically sound and comes with the original floors. The body is free from rust although the paintwork is beginning to show signs of its age.
