This eye-catching left-hand drive motorcar has come to the UK via Germany, but is understood to have started life in the South-West of America. It remains in its original colour of Indian Brown Metallic that's complemented by the original Brown cloth and cord interior. The Coupe is powered by a 325ci straight-eight engine of 135bhp that drives through a three-speed automatic gearbox. Braking is by an Ausco-Lambert disc system. The vendor informs us that the engine and transmission have been freshly overhauled and the sizeable bumpers and radiator grille rechromed - he now regards the bodywork as "superb", the exterior woodwork as "original", and the paintwork, engine and transmission as "very good". A rare car (just 698 were built) of enormous charisma.
