History

A beautifully original A Series R Type Continental with original interior and still in its original exterior colour. Delivered new to Switzerland in early 1953. It remained with its original owner until 1968, when acquired by its second Swiss owner. The third and final change of ownership took place in recent years, when the car was repatriated to the UK. A rare opportunity to acquire a very early production R Type Continental, which some would argue is the most desirable series. For further details please contact our London office.
