This charming littleBrit runs like a top and has shown no sign of slowing down. It was acquired from a collection and has been enthusiast owned ever since. The shifting is a little tricky but in 15 minutes I became accustomed to taking it easy on the car and letting the gears fall into place. It offers a sedate ride and once in 4th gear chortles along the path to fun. The paint gleams a shiny shine but has some flaws so parking lot dingswon't give you a coronary. The passenger side rear 1/4 has had a patch down low that is hard to see. There is also a 1 inch ding on the passenger rear door. The trunk will crackyou in the jaw it springs up so hard so please be aware of that quirk. The whole neighborhood has come alive to talk about this unique vehicle. Itreally appeals to the opposite sex and I won't be surprised if that is where it belongs. My dear mum motored all around the east coast in this model till it conked out on longisland. Thisautomobile is in great operating condition and both my partner and I have had it running well over an hour on separate occasions. It is a 59 year old 59 so there may be challenges, but right noweverything is as it should be. Shipping is not a problem, and let me say once again, it is a joy to drive. Harris
