DESCRIPTION

vibrant Dark Blue Parkertex Savoy, it contrasts really well with the silver outside and makes the interior a special place to be. A further 'Special Feature' that was ticked, is the Ebony wood

It is still zero previous keepers and has a lovely history file.

I have swapped out the Velour for grey leather (Dark Blue Parkertex Savoy velour/ velvet). The Velour is perfect and very special and comes with the car and can be put back to original if required.

Factory Black Piano Wood.... very rare in 79 !!

Also currently got privacy glass which if not to taste can be removed... I think it looks Ace.

It's now on Avon white walls had brakes overhauled along with spheres.

Supplied new from Jack Barclay from the Mayfair showroom on 8th January 1980. At a cost new of £40,751.84.

Fresh MOT prior to auction.

This is the car and description when our vendor purchased the car (still with the velvet in)

http://www.juliensumner.com/full-details-sold.php?code=131I have also included pictures of the car with its Velour interior.

This is mint and bubble wrapped in store should the purchaser wish to keep the car as original.

It is my intention to include this in the sale.

I have however also attached a current eBay listing for the identical interior which is for sale at £5k. Whilst it hasn't sold I would like to make this know at the auction. If the purchaser simply intends to sell it, I am more than capable of doing that myself !!

As the MOT expires in April I will have the car re tested prior to Auction so will come with a fresh mot... after that it's exempt.

The history file covers from delivery until present day and is comprehensive.

There is no Service Book ( I have a blank one in my drawer at the office lol ) but all hard copy invoices are present from Jack Barclays and latterly Specialist covering the past 39 years. Amusingly there is a bill of £1400 from the early 80's to recover the car from the owners Villa in the South of France as it wouldn't start !!

Whilst in our care the car has had new pads all around and the front discs skimmed.

Fluids have been changed and Brake Pressure One Accumulator has been replaced with a new unit from Flying Spares.

We have also replaced all speakers and in addition add a retro Bluetooth MP3 player.

It's also just had a brand new battery today.

3 Keys with the car.
