And here was me thinking I'd be the oldest G owner in the country. Mind you, he'd only be sixty four when he stopped driving it, so I might still be the oldest driver. Full marks for finding the car Pete, but you'll probably have to keep it for another forty odd years to claim the title.

not quite he mot'd it and took it for a bit of a spin aged 70 before selling.

I am still almost speechless regarding this latest find.

How did you find it? Was it advertised at all or did you track it down yourself?

super sleuthing!!!!  plus when you help run clubg40, you chat to a lot of owners!

had a couple of low milers come to my attention in last year - both by original elderly owners.  this one was nicest colour and most affordable!

Black is the nicest colour agreed.

Does look minty from what I can make out on my iPhone.

I could do with a stock G just to polish when i'm bored :(

niceone Pete, so you did decide to buy it then, it looks absolutely mint, and i bet it was really well looked after. has the charger ever been serviced?? what are you going to do with the interior?? i'd leave it, its certainly a one off,  :)
