HISTORY OF THIS CAR

PURCHASED NEW ON THE 1st  DECEMBER 1972 BY A MR RON BRYAN OF KING STREET TELFORD, WHO KEPT THE CAR TILL 1998, HE THEN PASSED THE CAR TO HIS SON MARK BRYAN, WHO THEN SOLD IT IN 2006 TO A MARK STOWELL, WHO KEP TILL OUR PURCHASE IN JULY 20222 , ALL CONFIRMED WITH THE OLD V5s.

THE OWNER MARK STOWEEL, WHO I PURCHASED OFF, WHO OWNED FOR OVER 16 YEARS, ALWAYS HAD THE CAR MOTd, AND SERVICED AT HIS LOCAL GARAGE IN DEVON, JON BEER AUTO SERVICES, WHO I AM TOLD WILL CONFIRM THE SAME.

OLD MOTs GOING BACK TO 1990, MILEAGE IN 1990 WAS 17,000 NOW SHOWING 26,000 MILES, SO ONLY COVERED 8,000 MILES IN 32 YEARS, I WILL ASSUME THIS IS 126,000 MILES , AS I HAVE NO IDEA PRIOR TO 1990 ?.

ALL VERY GOOD

VERY GOOD, NEW CARPETS HAVE BEEN FITTED, HEADLINING VERY GOOD AND NO SAGGING, SEATS ARE ORIGINAL AND VERY GOOD

ENGINE & GEARBOX

GOOD OIL PRESSURE, FIRES UP EASILY, NO SMOKE, CHANGES UP AND DOWN THE GEARS, AND IS A JOY TO DRIVE.

IN SUMMMARY , A VERY USABLE CAR THAT WILL NEED NO SPEND TO USE INSTANTLY, AND BEING A GENUINE UK SUPPLIED MANUAL GEARBOX WILL ALWAYS FETCH A PREMIUM.
