Vehicle History
Remarks
This is a UK Car and was originally supplied by Hanger Motor Company (Birmingham) Ltd on 4th April 1977. 3 Former Keepers – I have owned since 2013. – I have names/addresses and periods of time for each owner. It stayed in Birmingham until 2006. Original service book with 1st owners details filled in. 3 Services in the book. Most MOT certificates going back to the first in 1980. - Clocks showing 31,988 miles – this I imagine is 2nd time round, as I have previous MOTs in 1988 stating 82,244 miles.
