SUMMARY

An amazing find - a 1071 S Coop, registered early in 1965, 39,144 miles from new and 56 years ownership.

DESCRIPTION

  • An original, UK-supplied, right-hand drive, 1071 S in Almond Green with an Old English White roof 
  • Original interior in Dove Grey and Porcelain Green Vinyl with Cumulous Grey carpets
  • Purchased by a BMC employee originally on a company discount scheme and not kept for long
  • Although built in 1964, it was not first registered until early 1965
  • Owned by our vendor since 1966, some 56 years current ownership and indicating a believed genuine 39,144 miles from new
  • An MOT Certificate issued October 1986 at 39,031 miles, accompanies the car,  so the car has travelled 113 miles since then
  • It's accompanied by its original 'Passport to Service' and a tax disc (31/03/1988) thought to be the last time the car was used on the road
  • All identification numbers are genuine, correct and original. The registration number is original. Recently awarded a Heritage Certificate
  • It was treated to Slick 50 and a complete Waxoyl prior to being put into storage
  • The car rolls but has not been started and no attempt has been made to start it since coming out of hibernation
  • We would recommend interested parties to come along to view the vehicle and satisfy themselves as to what may or may not need doing to get this little Cooper back on the road

Viewing is highly recommended and vehicles will be available for viewing at the venue on Thursday 22nd and Friday 23rd September between 10am and 5pm, and then from 9am on Saturday 24th ahead of the auction which begins at 11am.
