1962 SUNBEAM ALPINE

1592cc petrol, manual. This red Series 2 Sunbeam Alpine received a lavish restoration in 2014-15 at a cost of nearly £36,000. It remains in lovely condition, with only a few paint defects that fail to detract from the smart overall appearance. It's well equipped with an overdrive, Weber carburettor, stainless exhaust and an aluminium fuel tank, and the vendor describes it as a “solid car” with “good oil pressure and a nice gearbox".  

This Alpine comes with a large stack of invoices documenting the restoration, including a typed summary totalling 1100 hours of work. First registered in May 1962, it passed its latest MoT in 2019 at 86,131 miles, and as a historic vehicle it is exempt from testing requirements. Today, the odometer reads 00562 miles. 

The registration number is non-transferable.
