1964 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE 4 MK1 1147CC BEAUTIFUL AND VERY RARE For Sale

For sale is my desperately pretty Mk1 spitfire 4. One of only 15 cars on UK roads making it very rare and desireable.
The car underwent a body off restoration in 1997 and has been garaged ever since only being used on dry days.
Every panel is steel, the floors, sills, door bottoms, chassis, bonnet and bootlid are all rock solid and show no signs of rust.
The paintwork is very nice and retains a deep shine, the wheels are the original staggered steel wheels (rare wider rears) with perfect tyres.
The bright work is perfect.
The interior is in good condition, recently replaced carpet set with re-foamed and re-trimmed mk4 spitfire seats, purely for comfort and safety, the original seats are very un-supportive.
It's mechanically superb, it starts first turn of the key and runs very well indeed and holds good oil pressure. It's a pleasure to drive, it holds the road extremely well for a 54 year old car and stops effectively through servo assisted brakes.
The hood is original and in fantastic condition.
The car has a years mot and is ready for the summer
This is priced very fairly following recent recommendations from the triumph club. There are 2 other mk1's for sale at double the price so please don't expect a "nut and bolt" restored car. This is a very solid and presentable driver that you'd be proud to turn up at any car show with
Thanks for looking
