Original Mk3 Int at Car Iconics 136 8412

Post by Peter Rothery »

They like the word original in the ad....but one owner and 37k miles will cost dearly.

NIce car! Looks exactly like mine. Where are the chassis and undercarriage pictures? How about the VIN? :)

A lot cheaper than the £145k asked by another dealer for a time warp car. Much as I like the original period colour I’m not sure how many people want to pay £85k for a brown car

I would. Such a lovely survivor in a classy looking understated period colour. Not for everyone I appreciate.

Similar to Triumph Stags, the good ones which come to market these days are often Brown, with long-term single or low ownership. Or, put another way: cars that remain Brown in colour are often cherished and rarely b***ered about.

One wonders whether it is worth nearly four times the similar very good low mileage brown Interceptor at Brightwells recently, which had 49,000 on it and needed some light recommissioning?
