The bodywork was restored a few years ago and given a complete new paint job. The car is in very good condition, with a uniform colour and an excellent shine. After professional orbital polishing by our workshop, we noted a fine scratch (4 cm) and a few small paint defects around the bonnet boss. We also noted a few light scratches on the lower right-hand rear wing. The bumpers and their bumpers were replaced a few years ago and are still in near-new condition despite some fine micro-scratches and a small scratch on the top of the left front blade (3cm). The right-hand rear bumper shows very slight traces of oxidation. The chrome trim (grille, mirrors, door handles) is complete, aligned and in excellent condition, as is the bootlid. The original chrome on the passenger door handle is slightly oxidised. We noted a light scratch on the left rear boot mounting bracket. This example is fitted with the optional "Badge bar" and two LUCAS long spans which are fully functional. The "black" mohair soft top and soft top cover are in very good condition, with no fading or tears. The mica on the rear window is perfectly translucent. The soft top is easy to fit and waterproof to the standards of the period. This model is fitted with a black mohair tonneau cover in excellent condition. Both are in excellent condition. The 4 chromed spoked wheels are in very good condition. Front tyres show less than 10% wear. The rear tyres show less than 20% wear. The 4 chrome knock-offs are in near-new condition. The car has its original wire spare wheel (painted wire wheel), knock-off mallet and jack. Among the interesting equipment and options available on this model are the LUCAS long spans, the bonnet and tonneau cover in "Black" mohair and the chrome bootlid. Interior: The interior is in excellent condition, in strict accordance with the original. The leatherette upholstery in "Black" and "Red" piping is in good condition. The front bucket seat inserts show a few even signs of wear. The "Black" colour leatherette door panels and their pocket compartments are perfectly taut and show only a few access marks. The burr walnut dashboard is in excellent condition, as is all the woodwork. The black leatherette dashboard cover is also in perfect condition. All the SMITHS on-board instrumentation is fully functional. This model is fitted with a LECARRA 3-spoke wooden sports steering wheel. This one is...
