This is a very rare ‘50s British sportscar – well under half the original production number are still believed to exist – of sufficient build quality and performance to have been considered a serious rival for the Jaguar XK120. This example is in a very good, largely original condition and has been in the hands of a conscientious custodian for the past 15 years. It drives very well, having been routinely serviced and maintained. We can assist the buyer with importing into the U.K. and providing a Nova. For reference, the U.K. import duty (VAT) would be 5% (additional).

It is believed the car was originally finished in maroon. The current black paintwork is in generally very good order, although there is a small dent to the nearside front wing. All brightwork is present and in very good condition, as are the hood, tonneau cover and sidescreens. New chrome wire wheels have been fitted – the original wheels are available with the car.

Whilst the 2 litre Standard Triumph four-cylinder engine is an exchange unit fitted at some point in the car’s earlier past, the vehicle is in a largely standard and original condition, with the only obvious (and worthwhile) modification being the installation of a Kenlowe electric cooling fan. The current owner has simply carried out regular servicing and maintenance - last serviced in February 2020 – to keep the car in a good drivable and presentable condition.
