SUMMARY
A rare, hand-built 1960s Tourer that was the choice of Royalty in period
DESCRIPTION
- In 1964, the new 3-litre Series III (TE21) was introduced and it was simply a masterpiece of understated elegance
- It was powered by a 130bhp, 2,993cc, in-line six-cylinder engine mated to a ZF 5-speed manual box
- Road manners were superb aided by independent coil spring front suspension, beam axle with semi-elliptic rear spring suspension and four-wheel disc brakes
- Around 350 TE21s were built (all by Park Ward) with, we believe, 73 being Drophead Coupes
- This delightful example looks particularly fresh in Alice Blue with light blue leather
- Owned by its current custodian since 2014 and only three previous keepers
- Since 2014, the car has benefitted from a complete body repaint and the whole interior refreshed with new leather seat facings
- It was subsequently gone through mechanically by Red Triangle in Warwick
- A lovely example of a stylish Grand Tourer that could give many a sports car a run for its money in period
