Registered in November 1947, this 900cc Austin 8 (AS1 four-door saloon) was one of the last of its type off the Longbridge production line (its chassis number is 103.042; the final one constructed was 103.585) and has been owned by the same family since 1958 and has just two registered keepers overall recorded on its V5C (the vendor's grandfather and and the vendor, from 1983 on).

Its registration number, GCE 613, has been valued at £2500 alone when back on the road.
