Auction with £2,800 opening bid.

Interesting car but I think I would have splashed out for a tyre on the spare wheel just make it look more "loved".

Certainly not a Stag engine and I very much doubt its a 2.5 either as that engine is a Mk1 probably 1998cc as per the DVLA listing.

Noticed it yesterday, the date surprised me more as weird, ten years before they were produced,even Paul,s first car 536 URR wasn't around then.

"will need a little tidy up"?

Definitely more than a little needed IMO, looks very ratty in places i.e. the interior. Obviously a fan of checker plate too. Seats look huge but probably comfy. Still a straight six always looks good in vintage style cars, the engine bay could be made to look very special. Might have to keep an eye on this one and see how the bidding goes.

It is registered correctly as a Marlin and has kept its age related plate on the old points system.
