Comments from the seller

This car was imported by my late uncle, from, I believe, Singapore, and was left to my wife. We have had the vehicle for several years and it has been driven regularly. We had intended to keep the car as it is a rather cool cruiser. However, we are downsizing as all the kids have left and we don't have the space in our new house - I have another classic as well. The car starts, runs and drives well. It has central locking, air-conditioning, power windows, chrome surrounds around the wheel arches and a chrome vent on the scuttle for the interior air intake, as well as an aftermarket cruise control system. There is some rust in the drivers side sill (see photograph) and there are a couple of minor dints - as might be expected of a car of this age. I has been repainted at some stage in it's life. The paint is in very good condition. The car has been garaged for as long as my uncle had it and since we have owned it. We do not know much history prior to the vehicle coming into our possession except to say that he was fastidious and it was his pride and joy. We are not aware of the number of previous owners. We are intending to sell the car without a roadworthy, however, this could be negotiated.
