SUMMARY
A wonderfully restored Sport Leicht in a unique colour combination.
DESCRIPTION
- Originally supplied in right-hand drive, however this SL was understood to have lived in France for its first three years
- Purchased by our vendor on its return to the UK in 1983 and with them ever since
- Fully restored in Citrus Green metallic (874) with a Silver Green (861) Hardtop during the last three years with minimal recent use
- With a smooth 200bhp 3.5-litre V8 and an automatic gearbox, this is a very usable 1970s classic, capable of keeping up with modern traffic on the move, and equally turning heads when you come to a halt
- There is an extensive history file supplied with the car covering much of its life
- Now offered at a very keen guide, this distinctively hued SL with its matching hardtop is sure to find a new home
