C8/843/SC is a truly exceptional example of a 15/98  kept in immaculate mechanical and cosmetic condition.  Records of this C8/843/SC, including build sheets, along with entries in the AMOC Registers over the years along with some early ownership details. The car spent much of its life as part of a collection in West Germany thought to be owned by a Dr Brandt and was recorded by the AMOC as still in Germany in 1984.  In 1988 C8/843/SC returned to the UK via Morntane Engineering (now Ecurie Bertelli) where it underwent a full nut-and-bolt restoration with no expense spared for new owner, Mr Mike Bagworth.  This included new bodywork by Rod Jolly to standard short chassis open specification and the restoration was completed in 1991/92.  Bagworth sold the car in 2007 and Ecurie Bertelli then sold it again in 2021.  The most recent owner has since passed away, bringing this car back to the market once more.

Over the years, C8/843/SC has been used regularly in the summer months including trips to Angouleme, Pau and Chinon plus many AMOC concours gatherings. Throughout, the car has been kept the car in fantastic condition.  Ecurie Bertelli completed a very thorough schedule of maintenance during the winter of 2020 which included a suspension rebuild, brake rebuild, engine maintenance, replacement exhaust system and an upgrade to a Speed Model clutch system.  Since this, the car has been only very lightly used. 

Completely ready to run and enjoy, this exceptional car is available to view by appointment at our showroom.  Please contact Robert Blakemore for more details.
