The car on offer is of French provenance and was restored in 2016 by the workshops of Laurent Telliez, in Fougères. All the mechanical elements have been dismantled and revised as attested by more than 100 photos. It is a 3rd hand car and it has covered 78,800 km as per the odometer. The car is powered by the 5.3-liter V12, and is equipped with air-conditioning and automatic transmission. The Pirelli P 6000 tires on the car are new and are mounted on sand blasted and repainted honeycomb wheels. The tool kit, the jack, and the spare tire cover are present in the trunk, as well as all service and workshop manuals. The doors are well aligned and the original "Signal Red" paint is in a good state. The design of the car is enhanced by a two-tone coachlining, and the interior's stretched grey leather with red piping is original, as are the carpets. The hood and its cover are in black Alpaca fabric. Two long-range Lucas spotlamps with their covers are installed under the bumper and a JVC CD player is in the trunk. It is a strict two-seater, ideal for romantic trips.
