The vendor has provided the following:

  • Only one on the road in the UK
  • Rare Toyota Corona from 1967, UK supplied new
  • Drove less than 200 miles in the last 12 months
  • First Toyota model to come to the UK and the only one on the road in Britain
  • Low ownership, was in a collection for 36 years, and in 2020 had a full nut and bolt restoration
  • I bought the car to drive and possibly take to shows, but I feel the car is too good to use and needs to be in a collection, so reluctantly selling to buy a more usable classic
  • I never showed the car, and I also have some health issues preventing me from driving much, but the car was always started and driven just a few miles each time to keep it usable
  • It was always garaged and covered
  • This year, all brightwork re-chromed, new exhaust, and new front brake shoes
