Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1973 Austin Maxi, used as a taxi in 'The Crown' and 'Rise of the Foot Soldier,' comes from a film company with 68,289 miles and a history of 5 former keepers. While it runs and drives, the last MoT was in 2018, suggesting it may need some work despite recent use.

Condition
6
The car is described as running and driving, but the last MoT expired in 2018, suggesting it may need some mechanical attention. Cosmetically, it has blue and silver paintwork and a green interior, indicating some wear and tear consistent with its age and use in film sets. Some reconditioning is likely required to bring it up to a higher standard.
