The vendor has provided the following:

Restored and treasured. Purchased by my husband 04/08/2003. The engine had been fully repaired/ replaced. (Apologies, written by a non-motoring widow). NB the original wheels are included and the soft top has been replaced. My husband then had all the clocks, and dashboard, replaced with cream and mahogany and then had all the soft top re-made as well (by an ex-jaguar upholsterer). Garaged throughout and never driven in the rain, this car was only used a few times a year. Due to illness, it's not been properly " run " for about 6 years now but has been started regularly. On a recent check, I was advised that the brakes were not working. The original handbook included plus workshop manual and Haynes workshop manual, plus the original Alpine 1-4 + 5 factory manual.
