Ford Consul Mark II

This is a Ford Consul Mark II four-door saloon with column gearchange, first registered on 20 September 1960 and now in the historic tax class. It is finished in Linden Green over Dover White with a period-correct interior, and the 1,703cc petrol engine is paired with a manual gearbox.

It shows 42,000 miles, and the MOT history reportedly records only small mileage increases through the years. The history folder holds nine old MOT certificates, older parts and labour invoices including a full service, notes on the specification, and some original sales literature. The car was dry stored from 1989 to September 1994.

Recorded work includes a gearbox seal and rear valance in 1997, a radiator re-core in 1998, a clutch master cylinder in 2005 and screen rubbers in 2003. The dealer describes the paintwork as good, with no underlying corrosion and excellent door fit.
