The Appeal
A more refined iteration of the MK2 was a priority in William Lyons' mind as the 1960s dawned. The resulting car, codenamed 'Utah MKIII', took some of the styling and mechanical improvements from the Mark X and brought them into the fray of the much-adored Mk2. It was a major redevelopment, resulting in a stylish sports saloon that featured an independent rear suspension, gently upgraded styling and more headroom than its basis.
It's still a highly desirable car - loaded with a distinctly British character that conjures up the days of the pinstripe suit and bowler hat. We're still clamouring for good examples, and we think this one ticks all of the boxes.
This 1964 car has been in the current owner's hands since late 2022 and comes supported by a restoration booklet documenting previous work, along with all bills for maintenance carried out during the current ownership. The car has seen use at weddings, and the vendor proudly notes that it's starting, running and driving well. image.png1.43 MB
