The vendor acquired this Sunbeam Supreme MkIII in 2016 and had the gearbox refurbished and a new clutch fitted in 2017 by a Sunbeam specialist. Thereafter it wasn't used until 2023, when a new fuel pump and battery were also installed. The car, which is believed to be original and never restored, is described by the vendor as running and driving, but requires some attention. At the present, there are no brakes; only the handbrake is functional. The vehicle was registered in June 1957 and has six registered keepers showing on its V5C. The odometer shows 68,233 miles. The previous colour was blue; this was changed on the DVLA's records in June 1989. As an historic vehicle, the Sunbeam no longer requires annual MoT testing; its last expired in September 2013 after having been tested the previous year at 65,667 miles. 

Documentation with the car includes the V5C and bills from 2017 and 2023 for the work detailed above. There are some spare keys as well.
