Hmm, blue garage door, London area, very nice car from Scotland, optimistically priced.  It has an attendee of the open day last Sunday written all over it! Whos favourite saying was always "my cars will be for sale only when I die." Thankfully he was in good health on Sunday!  :D

Would someone please translate into simple English the following extracts from the sale description:?

 "I have a bill from 1974 for a sparkplug so it ran for 14 years in period"

 "This machine is 110% correct" (Apart from the hubcaps, wing mirror, indicator lenses etc)

 "The car has been professionally stored for a couple of years but ran 100% when parked up"
