1977 AUSTIN VANDEN PLAS 1500 MANUAL. span > 3 OWNERS FROM NEW. 44. 00 MILES FROM NEW. UPERB CONDITION INSIDE & OUT CONDITION. COMPLETE HISTORY FILE. FULL SERVICE & REPAIR RECORD. NEW MOT. FAULTLESS MECHANICALLY & DRIVES LIKE A NEW CAR. There really isn't much more I can say about this car. other than she is finished in the original metallic "Sapphire Blue" with beige leather interior and walnut trim. The interior has many original refinements. including rear picnic tables. walnut dashboard and door cappings. central arm rests and special Vanden Plas leather seats.  Original tool kit and spare wheel etc (sorry i forgot to take a picture of the boot)The pictures (taken yesterday with a phone camera) do not do her justice and the whole car is in similar condition to a one year old vehicle(instead of a 36 year old!!). There is a bulging "XL" box file which contains the complete service & repair history. manuals. service book etc etc. This car has been superbly maintained and cherished by its 3 previous owners. She has been stored for the last 6 months and not used but has been regularly started and driven. The MOT expired end of October but she will have a new MOT next week. which will be available to the purchaser. Independent inspection of the vehicle is welcome if required.  The only "extra" is the VDP owners club badge. which is fitted to the center of the radiator grille. as can be seen on one of the photos.

Please telephone me on 0117 9671030 or mobile 07527242859  for more information about the car or for an appointment to view/inspect before the bidding ends. Inspection is welcomed prior to bidding. I am very easy to find . being  located in Kingswood. Bristol. close to the junction of the A420 (Bristol - Chippenham Road) and the A 4174 (East Bristol Ring Road). about 5 miles from M4  Junction 18 (A46 turnoff).

The vehicle is not advertised elsewhere and will be sold to the highest bidder once the reserve has been met. Genuine bidders only please. Cash on collection or bank transfer prior to collection and the winner must contact me within 24 hours of close of bidding to arrange to pay deposit with the balance in cash on collection.  Overseas buyers are welcome. and shipping can be arranged if required; alternatively the car could be driven immediately to continental Europe with no expected problems.  

Thwe reserve price is reasonable considering the condition of the car and the maintenance it has had over the years. There are very few survivors of this model in this condition. Happy bidding and congrats. if you win .  

This is a great example of these cars and the lucky buyer will not be disappointed. Any bidders from the BBC "Top Gear" programme will be immediately cancelled.
