Austin Metro
Vanden Plas Auto
Price: £4750

Year: 1982
Engine Size: 1275cc
Exterior: Cashmere Gold
Interior: Brown
Transmission: Auto
Mileage: 66,000 miles
This super rare MK1 Metro VDP auto appears to have had a cosseted life, as its low mileage of 66k miles and overall good condition testify.
It's presently being recommissioned following a period of storage after the death of the previous long term elderly owner.
The automatic gearbox is being overhauled as it wasn't working correctly and the cylinder head is being upgraded to accept unleaded fuel.
It also has had a new driver's side outer sill professionally fitted and new tyres fitted.
The bodywork is clean and tidy although as to be expected, it has had work over the years. The interior is in very good order, although the walnut veneer on the doors is a little tired.
I am hoping that this lovely example of the marque will be available in the summer.
