The Appeal

Finished in stand-out Signal Red with matching hard top and complementary Palomino leather cabin, this car has covered less than 51,000 miles from new. Considering how usable and relaxing these cars are for long trip, it shows remarkable restraint by its previous keepers.

The 180bhp from its 4.5L V8 means it is plenty quick enough for modern traffic. It retains the desirable aesthetics of the earlier cars with plenty of chrome. Inside and out it is a well kept car that looks its low mileage. It is fitted with a stereo and factory air conditioning.

The car comes with a well kept black fabric hard top and useful matching hard top. It carries USA title and Dutch import papers with all duties and VAT paid.
