Looks a tidy car. Regularly MOTed, but never seems to go anywhere. ( 2000 miles in last 16 years).
Long list of MOT advisories though suggest owners of this car have been more interested in it's looks than driving it.
Will be an interesting watch (Auction 26th April - No reserve)
BTW, it did change hands 2 years ago at Anglia Auction selling at £8,370.

Re: 86 Excel for Auction late April
It's listed as an '86, but isn't this an '85? The early style dash first caught my attention, so I looked at the VIN and it's 181 cars lower than my '85?

Re: 86 Excel for Auction late April
It states in the description it’s an 85 car, manufactured in Jan 85, but it’s date of first registration in the UK is 3/7/86. It appears it resided in Ireland before that with an export date of 3/7/86.
5 previous keepers changing on 13/8/88, 8/2/00, 8/2/21 and finally 13/3/21.
