Previous owners include Nick Mason and the Bonhams Motor Car Department. The trinity of originality, provenance and condition are often dreamt about in the world of classic motoring, however, AYP267 is one of the rare occasions when all three collide.
As for condition, the history folder includes numerous invoices for work carried out to maintain and improve the engine, gearbox and bodywork. If they were totalled up they would go a long way to the asking price of the vehicle. While in the care of the bonhams motor car department, AYP267 was treated to an engine rebuild and a repaint. These are only two items from a list of invoices stretching to no less than 35 pages. As a result, the engine pulls very well, maintains strong oil pressure and does not burn any oil. AYP 267 is available for inspection in west London.
