Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1924 Sunbeam 14/40, first registered in Birmingham, has a well-documented history with three previous keepers until 1992. Restored after being purchased in a dismantled state, it features an overhauled sports engine, retrimmed leather upholstery, and a renewed hood, making it a mechanically sound and aesthetically pleasing classic.
Condition

The car's coachwork is described as sound, solid, tidy, and presentable, but not in concours condition, indicating it is in good but not excellent condition. The mechanics have received considerable attention, with the engine overhauled and improved. The upholstery was retrimmed, and the windscreen replaced. However, the overall assessment suggests it isn't in top concours condition, it is still well-maintained and presentable.

Vintage Sunbeams are known for their engineering standards and some knowledgeable enthusiasts will prefer them to Rolls-Royces of the period.
There is a supportive owner’s club with plenty of advice and spare parts sourcing on hand.
Certainly a marque to consider when looking to fill a space in one’s Motor House and great will be the variety of models on offer.
This attractive 14/40 was first registered in Birmingham on the 17 th of June 1924.
We understand it to have had three previous keepers up until 1992; a Mr Greenwood of Southsea was the owner from 1959 until 1988 and used ‘Sarah’ the Sunbeam on a daily basis for both business and for pleasure, including twice-yearly visits to the Norfolk Broads, frequent days out and trips to VSCC meetings, including Silverstone.
The current collector custodian purchased the 14/40 in a dismantled state in 1992 from motor car Broker Andrew Booth.
It was then reassembled and carefully restored where appropriate.
