AI Listing Summary
This 1966 Austin Princess 1100 Vanden Plas is a very original example with 67,000 miles and two previous owners. It retains its original log book, handbook, manual, and even a dealer advert, adding to its appeal for collectors. The car is in good mechanical order, with a well-maintained hydrolastic suspension system.

The car is described as 'very original' and showing 'much patina,' suggesting it's well-preserved for its age but not without visible signs of wear. The presence of its original log book, handbook, manual, and dealer advert add to its originality and value. The mention of receipts and MoTs going back to the 1970s supports the mileage claim and history. While it's in good order with no hydrolastic leaks, the overall description points to a well-maintained but not flawless example.
