This was last seen on this forum coming out of a lock up after 15 years. It's now got a new lease of life thanks to Volksfarmers and James Wooton. Runs sweet - I use it all the time. Heater fully functioning ( CO2 monitor £18 from Tesco! )

Very nice looking car - was that a relative's car? I think I remember the photos when it saw the light again.

It found it on the forum - lovely chap called Chris sold it. It was his father in laws. He had it with Brian and Jane at Volksfarmers who sorted it all out and then a brilliant guy called James Wootons sorted out the cacky fuel tank.

Is indeed a lovely example of a Type 4, I saw it whilst it was in bits up at the Farm and it looked pretty solid then. Hope you continue to enjoy driving it as much as I enjoy my 412!

Can't wait for my 411 to be back on the road now, hopefully this year :)
