MMM number 200. That must make it worth an extra £500 on its own.
Bit sad that it is up for sale despite not being run-in following its rebuild. It would have been nice if it had given its owner the pleasure of driving it around for a year or two.

I am advised the vendor inherited this part rebuilt car from his late father and decided to complete the project. The car looks superb and it is a pity he has decided not to enjoy driving it.
I wonder what is happening to the market for our cars? The classic car market has softened recently and this is evidenced by the 24 cars currently offered for sale in our web site. Some of the asking prices appear to me to be a bit too optimistic?

I’m not sure young people have the time or interest in old cars these days. Health and safety, cars without seat belts, etc. It’s a different world these days. We never used to worry about breakdowns , we just lifted the bonnet and sorted it out, times have changed. 1970, My wife used our F1 to get to work, no side screens , but it was better than the bus.

George, It was not the vendor who inherited it, but instead the owner. (Unless you mean the same thing).
