A very stylish car, smart and attractive - a real eye-catcher, sporting P100 headlights, rear-mounted trunk and spare wheel with 'clam shell' cover and quarter bumpers. The car has a lot going for it, and to many, is the ultimate coachwork design for a 20/25 chassis. Although running and driving, it is in need of some mechanical attention due to an engine noise, and is therefore priced accordingly. Having said that, the compressions are good, the car has been rewired in cloth-covered cable, has a stainless-steel exhaust system, and in all other ways has been given a clean bill of health. So TLC is needed, but the work should be well and truly justified, both from the point of view of the satisfaction it would bring about and in all probability financially as well.
