SUMMARY
UK-supplied in right-hand drive, this Arctic White R129 comes from over 20 years ownership and is supplied with 12 months MOT. Offered with No Reserve.
DESCRIPTION
- On offer from over 20 years ownership, this R129 has covered just over 100,000 miles from new and is supplied with 12 months MOT
- It's finished in Arctic White with a matching white hardtop, blue soft top and a rare blue checked-cloth interior. It sits on 16" '8-hole' alloy wheels.
- Powered by a naturally-aspirated, 3-litre 'M103' 12-valve inline-six, delivering around 188bhp to the rear wheels via a 5-speed automatic transmission
- The factory specification includes headlamp washers and wipers, an electric radio antenna, electric windows, an electrically operated convertible roof, dual-zone air conditioning, and electrically adjustable front seats. It still retains its original cassette player
- It's supplied with some MOT certificates and invoices along with one key. Part of a deceased estate however, so a lot of the paperwork is missing although it will be forwarded if found
