This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at CarFest 2026 on Saturday the 29th of August and Sunday the 30th of August at The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.
Fresh to market after approximately 16 years of devoted long-term ownership, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-known and well-cared-for example, affectionately referred to as "Fae."
The car is elegantly finished in Royal Ivory, complemented by a classic black hide interior, creating a timeless and unmistakably British aesthetic.
It is powered by the sought-after Ford 1.6-litre CVH engine, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox, offering an engaging yet relaxed driving experience.
Maintained regardless of cost by a meticulous owner, with servicing and maintenance carried out promptly and sympathetically as required.
The vehicle has been enjoyed attending classic car events throughout the UK and extended European tours, all completed with exemplary reliability.
It has been sensibly upgraded over the years with all-round telescopic shock absorbers, servo-assisted brakes, and heated seats—discreet improvements that enhance usability while respecting the car's original character.
The car is accompanied by a comprehensive history file and a charming period-style suitcase, a delightful finishing touch that complements its touring credentials.
It will be supplied with a fresh MOT prior to the auction, providing additional reassurance for its next owner.
