SUMMARY
They’re only original once. A very special, low owner, low-mileage, late production example. A true time-warp 'B'.
DESCRIPTION
- Supplied new by F.W. Mays & Co Ltd of Dorking, finished in Sunset Orange with silver/grey 'deckchair' cloth seats
- This car has resided in just two households from new. The V5C shows two former keepers but they were the same person (company car and then personal)
- Privately owned since 2016 as part of a significant private Collection
- 21,707 miles recorded. Accompanied by the dealers wallet, with the service records, manuals etc., tonneau cover, V5C, most old MOTs and tax discs
- A true time-warp example - even the spare key is still attached to the bulkhead. A real delight and a hard car to repeat
