I don't know it but it looks decent enough to be worth following up on and going to view. How much is he after for it. That is the question ;)

Aparently it is not as early as the seller claims. something like 15,000 ish, as opposed to the 18th the seller was claiming.

It was indeed built in 1959, but was first registered in Jan 1960.

Looks like a nice enough car, but £28,000 seems very optimistic.

I suppose it’s transparent ringers like this with brand new chassis plates that the DVLA are trying to clamp down on with their new ruling but clobbering the genuine cars in the process.

A genuine cooper S evocation ??
In all fairness, the owner is not claiming anything that it isn't. The log book change is from the days when the DVLA would swap the name of a vehicle if you asjked them nicely. I reckon it's all of it's money at the current bid of £15 K though.

A lot of good bits there but the oversills don't add to it do they and I've never seen a brand new Newton trim kit so badly fitted:? :shock:
