Market commentary
Bought well considering its condition and mediocre performance. The body design? Well, it's more distinctive than an MGC. Daimler, official marque of the Royal fleet, tried with this fiberglass bodied hemi-head V8 to break out of its staid image. The SP250/Dart (Chrysler objected to the "Dart" name used in the UK) remains under the radar, and an intriguing value at prices like this.
