Market commentary

An unusual close coupled town Cabriolet with excellent proportions and elegant presence; door pillars remove to create a fully open car for an even more impressive arrival at fair weather events. An unusually rare and distinctive Saoutchik design on one of the finest chassis of the Classic era for which a representative price was paid.
