SUMMARY

A super garage find Brooklands with just 2,960 miles from new.

DESCRIPTION

Supplied and registered new by Soans of Leamington Spa
Finished, as they all were, in Brooklands Green with a Raven leather interior
From long-term storage in a collection of Ford Capris and purchased by our vendor last year
Will clearly require recommissioning however the engine turns freely on the pully
The interior is in a time warp condition as one might expect given the mileage of less than 3,000
All it appears to need is time, care and a bit of 'elbow grease' to return it to top form
A fabulous opportunity to own what must be one of the lowest mileage 280s available
