Summary
Not many convertibles were sold on the Swedish market at this time, so finding a car with 1 owner since it was new is rare. With an easier overview of the mechanics, this can be a wonderful summer car to enjoy in the summer sun! The car works as it is or is with its fine history an excellent starting point for renovation.,
