Reluctant listing of one of my own collection, due to re locating my business to home and now space isn’t as in abundance as it once was, I’ve got other more sentimental cars that need to go inside and I’ve gone about as far as I can with it, so time to move on.
I’ve owned the car for approx 5 years, logbook been in my name for at least 4, I’m the 9th owner, and was passed around a family before me. Apparently it was originally supplied to a Doctor in Somerset when new, and the gold 14” BBS wheels were an optional accessory that have been on it since PDI. Reg is currently BFB 141 which I’m just retaining.

Original early features such as LHD wipers, small mirrors and quarterlight door windows.

MOT end of Jan 2023
The paintwork is 90% original, and I believe all the panels are too. It’s HPI clear.
The shell is excellent, very solid no rust.
I’ve had two small bits welded for mot a few years ago to body shop standard (not mot standard), and I’ve had the whole underside dinitrol rustproofed at a cost of over £600. I had the windscreen surround painted where they always blister a few years ago , so that’s proper too.
I had the wheels professionally diamond cut and refinished in the original bbs gold, and 4 new Pirellis fitted.
The service history is lovely, with historic stamps in the book, and I’ve got all the receipts for everything I’ve had done, including Cambelt, servicing, new brake discs and pads front and rear, calipers, 16v master cylinder, new subframe and much more.
I’ve got the original grey and red striped interior to go with it, but I don’t particularly like that trim and it’s tatty so I fitted a very nice condition rainbow trim which looks bang on in my opinion. The car starts, runs and drives very well indeed and is ready to drive and enjoy. It’s about as sorted as a survivor car gets without going full restoration and I will regret selling it for sure!
