Beschreibung
This is my lovely RUST FREE, 1979 Dolomite 1500 SE (with Overdrive) of which only 2000 were ever produced. It is “ZIEBART” protected, so there is NO RUST! (Which is unusual for these cars). There's a full, no advisories, MOT. So having been fully recommissioned it's ready to drive away and enjoy. The car is registered 'Historic' so there is no road tax to pay, It is LEZ fee exempt and while the MOT is not essential, I prefer them to be checked for the road.
If you are looking to join in the classic car scene & enjoy the open road this could just be the car for you.
Historically the car had been fully renovated to a high standard. However, after a period of dry storage, it has now been fully recommissioned, with a couple of modern accessories, it is ready for long distance touring or just popping down town.
EXTERIOR
NO RUST. Paint is very good. Glass & Lights are all good and working. Chrome is quite presentable.
INTERIOR
Quite good condition for a car 44yr old.
UNDERSIDE
Clean & tidy. No signs of concern to be found. Nothing is hidden under heavy under-seal.
MECHANICS
The car is fully serviced and ready to enjoy. It starts, drives & stops as it should.
THIS CAR
The Dolomite was designed primarily as a family car, and it still is! The fabulous thing about this car is it is big & strong enough to take the whole family out to the seaside for the day/ weekend.
The BOOT is big enough for the shopping or good sized suitcases
The 1500 TWIN CARB ENGINE pulls well even with driver and 3 passengers.
The STEERING is surprisingly light and the VISION is virtually 360' .
The SEATS have been fully repacked and are surprisingly comfy (even my wife says so!).
The DOORS are big enough to make entry and exiting really easy (even with my gammy knee!).
The OVERDRIVE allows the car to easily keep up with modern traffic and remain economical. HISTORY
The car comes with spare keys, a workshop manual & a history pack. Including a CD with previous renovation photos and documents.
ABOUT ME: I am a retired engineer who loves to renovate classic cars. It is my hobby, not a business. This lovely Dolomite is my 16th car project. I bring them up to a very presentable, safe & highly usable state. My cars are ready for the open road & long distance touring. While MOT’s are not necessary I always have them done so the history can be maintained.
Thanks for looking.
Why sell it? I simply have too many cars & need the room for my next project.
