The car is described as a well-restored example, formerly part of famous collections and currently in a family collection since 2003. It has been recommissioned and made ready for the road by a specialist engineer. While it has not been used in recent years, it has been stored with other important early automobiles. The only mentioned departure from the original specification is the change from hot-tube to electric ignition, which was a later option.
