*Much supporting paperwork

*Said to be very usable
This three-position drophead coupé is one of just 2 105 produced on the long wheelbase chassis and is described by its vendor as being in 'very good condition' having had a full restoration some years ago. The paint has a good charm, but does have some imperfection, while the hood is reported to be very good and the interior, featuring pale brown hide, is described as being beautifully finished. The engine is reported to have been re-built when the restoration was carried out and it is said to start readily and pull strongly. Ideal for long distance touring events this 105 is offered with a good history file.
