There is no Buy it Now or part exchange. Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description;This charismatic little BMC beauty was originally supplied to an exporter in Weymouth, Dorset in September 1959. The car was destined for an overseas territory and as the wheel remains on the right hand side, this must have been one where the first owner drove on the left. Thanks to a highly detailed British Motor Industry Heritage Trust (BMIHT) certificate, we know that this Sprite was fairly well appointed with options including; a toughened windscreen without washers, sliding screens, a heater, rev counter, front bumper and black hard top. Thanks to the same certificate, we also know that the cars original colour was Iris Blue, the shade its since been returned to (having been painted white in between).A wealth of paperwork accompanies this Sprite from its original BMC drivers handbook, with licence stamps showing prior owners (up to 1967), a great photo record of the cars restoration and MoT certs back to 1978 (showing a mileage of 30,522). Those early documents suggest this Sprites clock has likely been round at least once, though MoT certificates show a confusing array of figures from the 1980s and 1990s. What we can be sure of it that the current figure on the odometer is 24,694.Viewing is strongly encouraged, and this lot is located at Bonhams|Cars Online, HQ. Viewings are strictly by appointment.
