SUMMARY
The Warwickshire Collection - This car has formed part of an extensive collection of British and European Classics and your inspection is encouraged.
DESCRIPTION
- In recent years, this car has formed part of a large collection and has received little or no use, so an element of recommissioning is to be expected. Some of these cars do start, run and drive. Each car has a condition report, however they are all sold as seen
- A decent example of one of France's best exports
- Traditionally presented in solid black with a grey needlecord cloth interior
- In the UK since 1973 and in the Collection since 2014 with just one other UK keeper
- It's clearly been the subject of a restoration but no evidence as such in the history file
- There are some photos of the engine having been stripped in the file so we assume this has been rebuilt. The engine bay would benefit from further detailing
- Showing 77,149km on the odometer
