Indeed, but the car will need money spending on it to undo the wear and tear of age.
I've already replaced front discs and pads.
The drivers floor carpet has worn through, so Williams are making a new one.
The side bolster on the drivers seat is worn, I've treated it with Gliptone, but the seat will need recovering st some point in the next couple of years.
It is on its second set of tyres and it will need new rears next year. As Avon no longer offer ZZ3s that means 4 new ones as unmatched front and rear are not a good idea.
So, a good deal, yes but not a cheap car, but it is a wonderful car. It is up at MMC having a roll bar fitted, and possibly a wooden dash. It won't be back till early March and After a week I really miss it!

Or Dave W's?
It is rather "LOUD" in every way.
But I like it, although the orange painted dash would have to go.
I wonder if the black seats have orange piping?
Just noticed it is LHD and has the 2013 steering wheel. So seems it is an early one.

The problem with Sport Orange - if that's what this is- is that it looks better in photos than in real life. It's a shade too red. But better than more mainstream colours......

I think I have to blame you Dave as I'm getting quite dran to orange Morgans! I would never have thought about an orange car before.
