We are delighted to offer this rare Standard Vanguard Vignale
Estate. This 1961 Phase III model designed by the Italian stylist
Giovanni Michelotti and coachbuilders Vignale was somewhat
different than the previous Phase models. A more modern design. the
Vignale had deeper front and rear screens and revised tail lights
with the estate having a very useful load area that may be seen on
this Vanguard today. A good history file displays the DVLA list of
previous owners. invoices. period advertisements and a sales
brochure for 'The NEW Standard Vanguard Estate Car'.

Mechanically the Vignale has had recent upgrades. The engine has
been overhauled to include; a crack and pressure tested head. new
valve guides. inlet and exhaust valves. big end bearings and main
bearings. A new set of TR4 pistons and liners have been added that
increase the capacity from the original 2088cc to in the region of
2138cc and with the head modified with harder valve seats. the
engine can consume modern unleaded fuels. A Hi-torque starter motor
aides efficient starting and with the addition of an overdrive
gearbox and now with an overhauled larger capacity engine. the car
pulls in a strong manner and cruises comfortably at speed.

This handsome period estate car is finished in nimbus white over
powder blue and is complimented by an excellent matching blue with
white piped interior. The Standard is UK registered and will arrive
with an MoT test certificate valid until October 2015.

With the rear seats able to be folded down and the separate
opening rear window and tailgate (with a complete set of wheel
changing tools within). the estate provides adaptable and useful
storage for large items thus. in addition. a useful tow bar
perhaps. making this Standard Estate an ideal race support or
family vehicle for Goodwood events.
