The car is described as a 1952 Standard Vanguard (Phase I) with a MoT exemption and V5 present. It has a documented history with a new engine fitted in 2010 and low mileage since. However, the description explicitly states that the brakes are currently feeling 'spongey', indicating a mechanical issue that requires attention and thus prevents a higher rating.

Today the odometer shows 75,363 miles.
The file also includes original instruction books, club materials, MoT certificates (some going back to the early 1980s), various receipts, a service manual, and a hardback history book about Vanguards.
The car was first registered on 9th January 1952.
It has been with its latest registered keeper since 2007, and the current V5C records 1 former keeper.
