Description
Description Only 17,630 miles indicated and believed correct; four owners, the current for 10 years; driven 35 miles to the sale; highly original; a proper time warp! This super Dolomite 1850 was supplied new by Colliers of Birmingham in November 1974.
It has had just four owners to date and is showing only 17,629 miles on the clock which is believed to be correct.
An old MOT from 1982 shows that it had covered 11,342 miles by that date, while 12 other MOTs show the mileage rising slowly from 2002 – 2018.
The original owner’s handbook has a note in the back cover recording some service items in June 1986 at 14,200 miles.
There is also a letter from the second owner dated November 2011 which states that he bought it from the family of the original owner and that ‘the genuine mileage of the car from new does not exceed 16,000 miles’.
Our vendor acquired the car from Birchfield Classics of Stockport in 2014, the purchase invoice also stating that the mileage was correct.
