In His Own Words
About him
Classic, vintage 1954 model, built in Romford but garaged in north Essex since 1969
Silver grey soft top, 70 on the clock but has been said to look like a later model. Robust construction, built for comfort, not for ultimate speed. Engine sound; sweet tick-over and revs willingly. Bodywork in good condition with only a few minor bumps and scrapes. All original accessories present and only one replacement part. Regularly serviced and maintained. Runs well on any grade of fuel but noticeably better on 5 star. Recent MoT, passed with no ‘advisories’. Totally reliable, always starts first time but needs a lot of lubrication. Extremely low maintenance and economical to run.
One previous owner, this desirable, low emission - no smoke - quiet runner has been in storage for a few years but is now ready for a new keeper and perhaps re-garaging.
As may be expected from a classic such as this, gentle handling and TLC will be amply rewarded.
Unlimited warrantee.
About his ideal match
Ideally she would like, or at least tolerate, banter, travel - near and far, great food, good wine, varied music genres, am-dram, cricket, rugby but certainly not football, holidays, travel and ME!
