Description
This rare High UP has been in our family since new, being owned by two careful ladies (my wife followed by our niece). I believe this rare 3 door white Up is a unique British factory order (order attached in photo), carefully chosen by my wife from Beadles Maidstone in March 2015. In addition to the standard heated seats, rear privacy glass, space saver spare tyre, on board eco computer, Sat Nav, DAB Radio, CD, Blue tooth, double depth boot, this car also came with nearly £2,000 of extras - 17" polygon alloys, Candy white paintwork, Lifetime Auto Glyn Protection (and its body work shows how good this is!), rear spoiler (elegant addition to the rear lines), black Vienna leather and a gorgeous tilt and slide glass sunroof. The spare tyre is unused.
The UP model was an award-winning small car of its time which paved the way for many other small cars to follow. It was World Car of the Year 2012, coupled with three other ground breaking design awards. The iconic styling so superior to the bland cars of today, £20 annual car tax and the near 70 extra urban MPG and inexpensive insurance makes the Up a world beater which still looks and feels relevant for today. This ULEZ compliant, beautiful small motor car is inexpensive to run and, if it is not already, will be a future classic. Kept nicely, I am certain this uniquely specified Up will be 'shown' in the near future as the modern classic it really is.
This car's provenance is complete as the car is accompanied by two keys, a full-service history and documentation pack including its original factory order documentation. It comes with a new MOT and no advisories. It has also just had £1,000 spent on it including new front pads and discs, rear brake overhaul, front wishbones and rear shock absorbers. All the tyres are excellent. This car will run and run like a good west end show as I know it has been well looked after.
The UP has a small number of age-related chips, the boot interior is almost blemish free and there is a small mark on the driver's seat. Overall, the exterior and interior is as new. The alloys are lovely, and the sunroof and extras set the car off wonderfully well.
If I was to keep the car, I would replace the front small white centre wheel caps as they are slightly blemished. These can be bought very cheaply online.
This cracking little car is in its garage awaiting its next special owner. The first to see this will wish to own this iconic small car.
