AI Listing Summary
This 1960 Sunbeam Alpine MK1, with a 1725 engine and overdrive, is offered after 22 years of ownership. It features a red exterior with a black soft top, black leather interior with red piping, and comes with extensive paperwork, including MOT certificates and a workshop manual.
Condition
6
The car description indicates that the car has been owned for 22 years and has extensive paperwork, suggesting it has been maintained. However, the exact condition of the paint, interior, and wheels is not specified, only noting the colors and materials (Red with black soft top, Black leather interior with red piping). The phrase 'Always turns heads when we are out in it, all ages!' implies the car is presentable but does not guarantee a high level of cosmetic perfection. Therefore, 'Good' condition is appropriate due to the age and likely wear, necessitating some reconditioning.
