Equipment

RHD. Climax FWE, dual Webers, braced roll cage, racing seats. Raced for years, restored in Germany in the 90s, the prepared again by Neil Twyman last year.

Market commentary

Sold by Bonhams at its London auction in April 2010 for $68,608, GBP 44,950 at the time and GBP 37,800 today. A competitive production race car at a realistic price and something of an expensive proposition for the seller who had it checked by Twyman and gained just a single result at least years Silverstone Classic with it.
