There's value for money and then there's VALUE FOR MONEY. This car is the latter. Two and a half tons of hand built British luxury with more walnut, leather, Wilton carpets and hand finished panel work than an episode of the antiques roadshow. As if the 6. 75 litre V8 wasn't enough there is a huge Garratt turbo charger with enough boost to offer 385 BHP, driven through a 4 speed automatic gearbox. Just point the car at St Tropez and off you go (PCR test permitting).
With 823 examples leaving the Crewe factory many have fallen into disrepair over the last couple of decades. This car is in beautiful condition throughout. The paint, leather and woodwork is all exceptional. It really does look as good in the flesh as in the photos. These cars are a joy to drive, just touch the throttle and you feel an instant grunt. Push it further and as the turbo spools up a wave of torque pushes you towards the horizon. A Tesla may do it faster but it wont give you the warm, fuzzy feeling that a Turbo R does.
There have been just 5 owners from new, it is clear by the way the car has been looked after that each and every one have them has cherished it. There are service entries in the book at 719 miles, 6, 500 miles, 11, 492 miles, 19, 032 miles, 27, 743 miles, 28, 926 miles and 32, 463 miles, all at the main dealer. Subsequent maintenance has been undertaken by experienced and fastidious owners. There are 4 Avon TurboSpeed tyres fitted. A new MOT will be supplied with the car. Come take a look!
