Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Lucas P100 headlights, passing lights, trafficators, polished wheel discs, single sidemount. Single family ownership until 1978, apparently with three subsequent owners. Never restored, the repaint is in very good condition for its age and the original interior and woodwork are spectacular. The Four Door Sports Coupe coachwork with polished side flashes complemented by the wheel discs will stop traffic. A connoisseurs car.

Market commentary

Its not often that such a remarkably balanced and opulently appointed automobile comes along. Usually its a Bentley or Rolls Royce, occasionally a Cadillac or custom bodied Bugatti. I think this is a fabulous buy in a particularly attractive, rare and handsome automobile that anyone who appreciates fine cars will be proud to be seen driving. Well bought.
