DESCRIPTION

Car now being valeted and I will then take some detail and interior shots. Car is actually owned by my close buddy, octogenarian and pilot, Hugh John Scott Smith but he is not computer literate! Current mileage, as you will see from MOT check is just over 161K. Engine was professionally rebuilt by our aero engineer at 140k. John has kept copious handwritten notes of history in his ownership. I'll ship scanned photocopies if required but nonetheless, they will be offered to new owner. Car is manual box, 2.3-16 with sunroof and half leather. Only 56 are currently listed by DVLA making it rarer than a McLaren F1!!
