A lovely original example under the current ownership since 1996. This vehicle has been well maintained with regular servicing being done each year. The car had covered 53,000 miles in 1993 & the odometer now reads 101,000 miles.

The car is finished in Signal Red with the paint being in very good condition overall. Wire wheels were special ordered from new with knock off hubs. To the inside is black leather again in really lovely condition as is the headlining.

The V12 fires up instantly & settles to an even idle. When on the road it feels as if one is attached to a long piece of elastic as the car readily & effortlessly accelerates from any speed in top gear. The car comes with assorted bills, an original manual & old style log book. More importantly, when viewed from underneath the car is rot free & solid. A stainless exhaust has been fitted at vast expense to replace the original mild steel unit.

The car is located in Gloucester & may be viewed there by prior appointment.

The car is finished in Signal Red with the paint being in good condition overall, save for one or two stone chips across the front picked up on the handful of European rallies which the owner and his wife have enjoyed. Wire wheels were special ordered from new with knock off hubs. To the inside is black leather, again in really lovely condition, as is the headlining and bootspace. When viewed from underneath, the car is rot free and solid. A stainless exhaust has been fitted at vast expense to replace the original mild steel unit.

'AVC 53K' benefits also from being one of the best of breed examples available with only three previous keepers and the current custodian since 1996. During this tenure this vehicle has been well maintained with regular servicing being carried out each year and sensible upgrades such as disc brakes on the front wheels to improve drivability. The car had covered 53,000 miles in 1993 and the odometer now reads 101,000 miles which is very healthy for the more than capable V12.

The V12 fires up instantly and settles to an even idle reported to effortlessly accelerate from any speed in top gear. The enviable history file comprises assorted bills, an original manual and old style log book and is offered today at auction with valid MoT test certificate until June 2012.
