I have one of these, in exactly that colour, but with dove grey upholstery. Bought it as the second owner in 1982. It's driven most days and is quiet, comfortable and reliable.
@catgaming2116 Thanks for your question. It's easy to maintain because, unlike modern cars, any good mechanic can service it. There are no sealed units for things like headlights, which, for example, cost friends with modern cars, something like £1,000 to renew. There are no computers to go wrong and it's a mechanical vehicle rather than an electronic one. I have it checked regularly for rust, which can be an issue, and it's serviced regularly and anything that needs to be done is done. I am only the second owner since it was new, and I'm lucky enough to be able to look after it properly. The problem comes, I believe, when they are bought by someone who can afford the purchase price but not the running costs. Then little things get neglected and one problem leads to another. The result is a huge repair bill. I suppose it costs somewhere in the region of £5 - 7,000 a year to keep it up. When I bought it, the price was about the same as a good top of the range Ford, £15,000. Now I'm told it would sell easily at £75,000. That's not on the books though. I'm nearly 70 and think it will see me out.
TH-cam sadly wouldn't allow us to put a direct link to our website, although a google search of us would have had you there in seconds. It's actually just been collected by the new owner.
Beautiful. I regret selling my 1957. Kids loved those tables whenever we picked food from McDonald's drivethru.
Bloody hell, what a magnificent car!

May i ask about the maintenance? It looks very nice.

Very tidy car in a lovely colour combination. Seems well priced.
my birth year rolls and if its in my condition i wouldn't be driving it very far.
It's not my preferred colour, but it sure is a sweet piece...
J adore le luxe a l ancien
_How_ is there no link to either the website or the car? 🤦🤦🤦
