Description

Beaulieu Garage is pleased to offer for sale this marvelous Triumph Spitfire, finished in lustrous Valencia Blue, with only 14,899 miles on the odometer. This car should be viewed as a project (but only just, see below). The car was originally sold new by Hollingdrake Automobile Co Ltd on 23rd May 1969 for the sum of £608.00. The paperwork includes the original invoice and the manufacturers guarantee document. The history file also includes the original (green) Registration Book, the Vehicle Registration Document that superseded the green Registration Book, there is also some lovey pieces like the handbook (which is like new), the original Sales and Service Directory, and crucially, the original Servicing Schedules booklet. This booklet shows the original registration number as OJA211G, plus services up to 10,188 miles. There is further paperwork showing further MOT's and services/parts. There is also information that shows the car was SORN for some time. The Spitfire was owned by the first owner up until 2021 when the car was then inherited by his family. The final owner purchased the car from said family in 2023. So only 3 registered owners but actually only 2 different families, so to speak. Beaulieu are offering this car as a project. The condition overall is good but there is mechanical work needed, here is what we have identified: Ignition Switch loose, n/s window not winding down correctly, reverse gear detent needs investigation, correctly spaced number plates needed, all 5 tyres are old and must be replaced, new wiper blades needed, there are oil leks for the engine, the gearbox and the rear differential, both engine mounts need to be replaced, front brakes are seized plus new pads, flexi hoses and fluid are needed, and finally the engine oil (and filter) needs to be changed. So, any person mechanically minded or someone who would like a project to fettle with would be buying a very nice car. It is original, it is low mileage and it has a pretty good history. Beaulieu Garage does offer video walk rounds using Facetime or WhatsApp. , Next MOT due 03/03/2024, Full service history, Clean bodywork, Black Vinyl interior - Clean Condition, New tyres required, Solid Valencia Blue, 3 owners, Beaulieu Garage in the Heart of the New Forest - Open 9am to 5pm, Monday to Saturday, £11,495
