Equipment
RHD. Full windscreen, headrest (no fin). No racing history. Sold new to Col. Hoare as a road car, eventually restored by Ardua Engrg in 96 with sympathetic attention to its originality. Only 19,050 miles. Good quality repaint but applied over old paint; interior shows wear and use, some body edge chips and small dimples. Very clean and almost like new throughout.
Market commentary
Bought last year at Brooks at Quail Lodge for $1,102,500 (when the odometer also showed 19,050 miles to and fro adding up to zero again) Highly original it may be, but the reported high bid seems like it should be plenty to pry it from its owners grasping hands. Theres no history to the car, its just a very original D type which will see its value slip every time a mile clicks off (after hooking up the speedo cable) or a repair is needed.
