Description

We bought this originally to tow behind our motorhome, but my wife liked it so much its been her daily driver. She's now been diagnosed with dementia and so can't drive it any more. Regrettably we have decided to sell and let someone else have the benefit of this lovely car. During our 5 years of ownership it's never missed a beat or let us down and apart from routine maintenance has never needed anything. The car drives without fault and everything works as it should, including the roof which opens and closes smoothly. Expensive Watanabe split rim wheels with new tyres. The heater is brilliant so the car can be enjoyed comfortably with the roof down even in the winter months. All the advisories on the last mot were attended to except the rear wheel bearing which has been like that since we had it and hasn't got any worse and doesn't make any noise whatsoever. There are a few small blemishes as expected with a car of this age and shown in the images. There aren't any scratches on the bodywork as some of the images may suggest, they are reflections from the trees. The previous owner made an insurance claim when his neighbour reversed into the front of the Copen. He didn't bother repairing it and carried on using it as it hadn't affected the driving of the car. During our ownership it's been professionally repaired to a very high standard. All the outer panels and the bumper are the original parts, the only replacement items being the plastic radiator/headlamp carrier which had broken in several places and the bumper reinforcement panel which was bent. We've had a lot of fun and good times with this car and it will be sadly missed. Next MOT due 05/11/2024, Silver, 5+ owners, £2,250
