N°02 — The Story
A vehicle with provenance.
Equipment and features: While DVLA records suggest the car was previously painted brown, a colour change to black was noted in 1988. Inside, the cabin is trimmed in cream leather, offset by a black dashboard, centre console, and steering wheel. · It rides on a set of 15-inch wheels, finished in grey with anodised lips, and wrapped in Avon tyres. · Equipment includes Smiths dials, electric windows, an analogue clock, air conditioning, a heated rear window, and a Pioneer cassette stereo. · A collection of invoices will accompany the sale. · One ignition key will be supplied.
Condition: The car’s last MOT test was conducted on 29 January 2026 at 65,245 miles, resulting in a first-time pass with advisories to monitor imbalanced brakes, poor operation of the brake pressure/vacuum assistance, and poor rear service brake efficiency.
Service history: In May 2023, the engine oil, oil filter, spark plugs and a door handle were replaced, and the fuel pump feed was repaired. · New carpets were made by Bespoke Car Interiors in November 2019. · A road test report was produced by Desmond J. Smail in August 2019. · In August 2017 at 64,710 miles, repairs and adjustments were carried out to the battery tray and restraining clamp, the door locking mechanisms, rear fog lights and transmission throttle linkage, and the transmission oil was topped up. · In July 2016, the fuel tank sender, spark plugs, distributor cap and clock were replaced, and the carburettors were serviced by Liskeard Classic Cars. · Maintenance was completed in January 2011 at 64,067 miles, by Mark Fish Motorsport. Work included addressing a non-working clock, adjusting the windscreen seals, re-securing a heat shield, servicing of the passenger window mechanism, blanking off of the air pump feed pipe, and replacement of the rear shock absorbers and incorrect differential housing bolts. · In addition, various checks were completed to identify the cause of a poor idle and uneven running. The tappet shims, gaskets, seals were replaced, the camshafts and chains were timed and tensioned, and the rocker covers and oil filler cap were refurbished. The carburettors were adjusted, and the ignition leads, rotor arm, distributor cap, battery, and the engine oil and filter were changed.
