That does sound like a Unicorn 144 and deserving of a good home. I hope it doesn't have the big bumpers - I think they were introduced in '74 at the very end of 140 production. In my opinion the '73 grille with small bumpers and rectangular rear lights is the prettiest of them all. Obviously, just my opinion.

Matthewsons have been achieving some good results. This last week a superb 1800ES - showcased in Driver magazine - made £29500 and a very nice C70 £3800.
