We have owned this little car for eight years and she has never let us down. We have taken her on several tours including a trip to France down the Loire Valley and out to Brittany. She drives beautifully with no rattles and bangs and good tight steering. She is fitted with non original seats and front disk brakes with braided hoses and a sports steering wheel but is otherwise a good original example. She is fitted with the optional extra heater and chrome bumpers and also comes with a hard top, tonneau and soft top and also a red suitcase to fit on the rear rack for touring.

The old green logbook shows that she was originally registered in December 1959 although the V5 shows she was re-registered in 2003 following an extensive refurbishment, she retains her original Manchester registration number 8595N. She also retains the original 950 engine which was refurbished in 2007. Recent service and new rear brake calliper, recent MOT.
