One bad point we have discovered.... the neutral light doesn't illuminate on the dash. The wiring and bulbs have been checked and are okay. The fault appears to be the switch itself, located on the top of the gearbox. A very nice, usable example, kicks over first or second try. * There is a box of replaced parts including the original clocks which show just over 14, 000 miles. £9495. Viewings by appointment only.
