Austin Princess Vanden Plas Limousine Wedding Car for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.1) based on 437 votes

I am now selling the last Princess in my wedding car fleet. I had 4 of these at one stage and over the last few years have sold them. leaving the best until last. I have put the original registration number on retention as the last 2 Princeses have been bought by the same person in Italy and he has shown interest in this one. So I thought if its going abroad I would keep the reg which has been valued at £1500. I now have the new number and log book.   

I have owned this one for around 8 years and in that time it has done hundreds of weddings.  This one is an early one and has a few nice touches such as opening rear quarter windows and footrests for the rear passengers (can be seen in the photo's)

This car is tax exempt and now since recent changes does not require an mot. ( I have all of the MOT's since I have owned it and some previous ones)

It starts fine and runs great. The bodywork is very good and the doors shut well (a good indication to the state of the bodywork). The steps are also solid. Only negative is a little blistering around the bottom of the front wheel arches. The interior is lovely with no damage to the seats or headlining. Chrome work is also in great condition

The engine is a little tappety when revved but does not effect the running at all.

Temp gauge not working and is a common fault. But again this does not effect the running.

All the brakes have been replaced over the last couple of years.

As its my last Princess I will be including all the spares I have. mostly brake components as well as a couple of workshop manuals

You are welcome to view the car or ask any questions. I have the car advertised else where. I have a reserve so won't accept any silly offers.  

Regards Paul. Tel. 07930339088

I have the original brown logbook to go with the car. As mentioned the original number is on retention but I will be willing to sell separately.
