Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1974 Vanden Plas 1500 is a low-mileage, show-winning example with a rich history, including a large file of invoices and participation in club events. While it has been meticulously maintained, potential buyers should note the speedometer issues between 2005 and 2014 and the minor corrosion issues.
Condition
7
The car is described as 'wonderfully original' and 'pampered' with low mileage and a vast history. It has won show awards and has been meticulously maintained with regular servicing. However, there are mentions of minor corrosion issues and an oil leak that were addressed during the recent MOT, along with evidence the speedo wasn't working for a period. Considering the overall condition and the need for some minor reconditioning, a 'Very Good' rating is appropriate.
