1978 VAUXHALL VX 490 (5 Speed) Genuine 46,300 miles SOLD

First registered in February 1979, this rare VX490 5-speed (only approx 900 were produced) has covered less than 46, 300 miles in the hands of its two owners. The first took her straight from the showroom to be 'Ziebarted' which accounts for the virtually rust free condition. Garaged for all but the last 5 years the bodywork (in Coppertone Starfire) and the chromework are all in good condition and the interior is totally original. Last on the road in 2004 she will require re-commissioning and comes with a wide range of spares and original Vauxhall workshop manuals. Please note, although in excellent condition this vehicle is currently a 'non-runner' (requiring a new exhaust and battery) and will therefore need to be trailered away.
Looking for a good, 'Vauxhall enthusiast' home.
Please contact me to view the car or for online access to 100 detailed photographs.
