The tyres have minimal wear, being 350x19 Longstones to the rear and Blockleys to the front. There is a two piece tonneau cover and pneumatic seat cushions. Brooklands aero screens are fitted. The car comes with V5C and old green log book confirming the identity of the donor car first registered in October 1930.
