1976 was the final year of the factory-built convertibles and the last of the truly large Caddy convertibles. This magnificent and collectable vehicle is finished in Cotillion white with top quality red buckskin trim and is complemented by a white soft top and whitewall tyres. This particular car was one of the famous Cartier cars - entry number 49 in Class 7 - the cartier style ET Luxe in association with Cunard and was invited by Arnaud M Bamberger and the Earl of March and judged by Lord Linley. The show took place on the private lawn outside Goodwood House for the festival of speed on 14th July 2002. We believe there has been one previous keeper in the USA and two in the UK and the mileage is 74000 miles from new. The vehicle is both tax and MoT exempt. Powered by a 500 cubic inch 8. 2 litre V8 offering 210bhp makes motoring with this long sleek car an absolute breeze.
