When did you last see a rust-free Alfasud in the UK? Especially one which is original UK RHD (May 1978), currently MoTed and very useable? This is an exceptional example body wise and it runs and drives a treat as anyone who has driven one will know. Emits that lovely boxer rasping exhaust. 1286cc, 5-speed manual, FWD, four-door with a proper boot, not a hatchback and none of that arguably devaluing later plastic external trim (I’ve had both and know which I prefer).

Packard Touring Sedan, RHD, Rebuilt, 32k miles (1948) £26,850 ono
Big and beautiful 1940’s American touring saloon from South Africa, superb condition, low mileage, 3 volumes of history, ready to use.

Sunbeam-Talbot Ten (1947) £8,850 ono.
Essentially a pre-War car, this 1947 Sports Saloon retains the classic 30’s lines while benefiting from more modern features such as automatic choke and better brakes. It was completely rebuilt in the period between 2001 and 2005 (photos present) and is bodily and mechanically sound. Since then the car appears to have been laid up and has only covered about 1000 miles. Consequently it is in good condition all round, starts easily, runs really well and is a pleasure to drive. The inside has … [Read more...]
