A clean and tidy example, in a cheerful colour scheme of Ruby red and silver/grey, with a very impressive red leather interior, nice carpets, headlining, etc, and unusually (and sensibly) fitted with inertia reel seat belts to the front.
Also sensible, is the conversion to flashing indicators, which work in conjunction with the original trafficator arms, giving security in modern traffic, but retaining originality at the same time.
Running well, fitted with well-suited Avon tyres, radial in construction but of cross ply size and appearance, so the best of both worlds.
A fun fact is that the car was used in the 1984 TV production of Agatha Christie s Murder in the Library https://www.imcdb.org/v275401.html All in all, a car well equipped for modern times, both in terms of performance, keeping up with modern traffic, and with the modifications mentioned, adding to practicality.
Serviced and MoT tested.
