Splendid! A lovely car from a lovely part of the world.
What pity my piggy bank is empty.
Good luck with sale.

What a story. The second ever owner bought it back from me!

The second owner of the car who purchased this in 1992 (and he said it was in perfect condition even then) and he kept this carefully until 2007. Since then one owner from 2007 to 2018 and then me.

He sold the car to start his business and bought it back from me showing me pictures of his wife and kids back in the day in the car.

He will now store it very well I think as its part of his whole life story.

And the business he started was a classic car restoration business so it will be in good hands!

Another car saved I hope.

That's a great result for all, and good to know it's going to be in safe hands.

Kind regards
