You've owned the car for less than two years, may I ask why you are selling it?

[peterwardbooth]

Thanks for your interest. The answer is simply I luckily came across a TR5 to restore at a "restorable" price after I had purchased the 6. The restoration is more or less finished and I've always wanted a 5, so the 6 has to go.
hope that helps, the 6 is a great car

That's helpful, thank you.

Please could you advise:

• Is it HPI clear?
• Will it be sold with a fresh MOT and with any advisories fixed?
• When did it last dance a major service and is there an invoice for this?
• Has it been subject to major restoration and if so please provide details
• it appears to sit down on the r/h side slightly when viewed from the rear/front - reason?
• Is there any paint degradation, e.g fading, panel mismatch, micro blistering, lacquer peel?
• Is any of the chrome brightwork tarnished?
• Has the head been converted to run on unleaded and what other engine work has been done?
• Details of any meal/suspension upgrades
• Has it been re wired
• Is there any lacquer peel to the wood trim?
• The clonk in the rear suspension on take up is probably caused by play in the U/J’s - do you agree?
• Can it be viewed during the week

Thanks, Nick

thx Nick
no HPI carried out - not indicated
regular quality care & maintenance, if it had been body off restoration it wouldn't be for sale at approx £18k!
regular servicing by me - no invoices
I think excellent photos are helpful re body work and importantly the chassis very solid
I think other questionnaire best discussed at a viewing, happy to discuss a date this week if required

[woodsy99]

Thanks for your reply but I would like answers t my questions before deciding whether to view - if you prefer you can email me direct ; )

I think this is the same ( Damson & Coventry registered) car that I was offered @ £25 grand a couple of years ago.

True

[JamesKevin]

Very possible! If it’s the same Damson & Coventry-registered car, £25k a couple of years ago sounds like a pretty good offer compared to today’s market.

Hi, please can you clarify why the car has only travelled around 3K miles in 20 years?
