Sellers original description:
Only 32,000 Miles from new Yes!! 32K one owner for 30 years.
This Car has the potential to be the best TR7 in the country.
I only brought the car as it is such a unique find and I intended to take it to top show condition but have decided to let it go to someone who can do this as I now do not have the time due to my MG Midget.
This car has absolutely NO rust or rot and has never needed to have any sort of repair.
The car has been in dry storage on blocks only doing 70 miles in the past 15 years but with regular starts, All MOTs.
The original owner was a real eccentric who covered everywhere in the car in a thick oily oil that saved it from any rust, I spent weeks cleaning it from all visible areas.
The engine is totally amazing it starts instantly and ticks over from cold and is the smoothist sounding engine I have ever heard.
I have just put the alloys on but have the superb originals as well.
The only negative this is there are several patches of crazing in the paint work which needs sorting. But no rust at all.
Also the the owner changed the seats to Recaro as he had a bad back and wanted more support !!
The car has no MOT but would fly through with no problem at all.
This really is a one off and must be seen if you want a real stunner that would soon be worth at least 5K.
Much paperwork including Garage original workshop manual.
If your a TR7 enthusiast this is a real one off opportunity.
