Current V5 present. Paperwork includes V11 reminders, invoices for parts and work, previous insurance documents, valuation certificates, a photo album, The Scimitar and its Forebears book, a Scimitar restoration book, parts catalogue, workshop manual and a Slice magazine.

The vendor has provided the following:

  • In original condition engine gearbox interior body and chassis.
  • Runs well overdrive and works normally.
  • Cooling problems sorted electronic ignition.
  • Considerable amount of paperwork with history and photos of restoration in 1992/3.
  • Present owner since 1991.
  • Always dry stored never used when salt on the roads.

I have loved and loathed her in equal measure for 33 years. She was a box of bits when I bought her and she was rebuilt by my friend in his car engineering business over a period of a couple of years. Since then she has had a rebuild of the gearbox to stop it jumping out of 2nd and a complete new cooling system. Latterly she has had optical electronic ignition and new distributor cap and rotor arm which has resolved the hot starting issues.
