This cheeky 1960 Sprite is a UK supplied RHD home market example, smartly presented in old English white with Red leather seats. Completely restored and overhauled in 2015, including full bodywork restoration, interior retrim and suspension and brake overhaul. It is truly in remarkable condition throughout!

The shell is all steel including the bonnet and it looks in fine fettle - the White paint looks great as does the interior. The car also features chrome wheel trims plus an attractive original specification Bakelite steering wheel.

This example is also offered with a healthy history file, dating back to 1981. Correspondence with previous keepers and details of the restoration. Supplied with a hood and frame, this one is on the button and ready to go. Purchased for £21,000 in 2016 and has covered less than 1,000 miles since.

Overall, this is a super example of the marque ready for its new owner.
