Lot details
Registration No: CNH737C
Chassis No: VRS3677
Mot Expiry: April 2013
Famously fitted with Rolls-Royce's FB60 3909cc straight-six engine, the Princess 4 Litre R accounted for just 6,555 sales. Stated to have had just one owner from new, 'CNH 737C' is understood to have been extensively restored by The Village Garage of Northants. Begun in January 2008 work apparently saw the saloon receive attention to its brakes, bushes, shock absorbers, chromework, cylinder head and exhaust etc. Further benefiting from a through bodywork refurbishment and bare metal respray in Masons Black over Grey, the Vanden Plas sports a typically well-appointed interior with rejuvenated Grey leather upholstery and new carpets. Riding on repainted wheels shod with fresh tyres, this rare luxury saloon is offered for sale with original green logbook, old/new V5 registration documents and current MOT certificate.
