About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

One of 31 built for 1959. Delivered new in England to a member of the RAF. Represented as matching numbers and restored in 1990. In current ownership since 2012. The car has been kept very clean and highly detailed since its restoration, and shows little age.

Market commentary

A decent and appropriate result given the age of the restoration but also recognizing the impressive state it’s in and the unusual combination of the 692/2 ohc engine with abundant (for the time) occupant comforts and conveniences. It combines surprising performance with ordinary appearance in an unusual package.
