Launched in 1959 as a follow up to the 90 and 105 models the P100 sorted a very capable six cylinder P100 was good for 100mp. This model boasted a sumptuous interior likened more to a more expensive marque such as Bentley or Jaguar. Servo assisted Girling disc brakes and overdrive as standard equipment.

Registered on the 19th October 1959 and a year away from its 60th birthday this example has proven to be a very early production model. She is being offered from long term ownership with a comprehensive history file spanning back nearly thirty years. On inspection the P100 is in fine condition with an exceptional original and nicely patinated interior and very smart paintwork. From the paperwork supplied much work has been carried out over the years such as Immobiliser switch fitted, suspension completely re-rubbered, new brake master cylinder, callipers, prop shaft rubbers replaced, steering idler bushes replaced and handbrake overhauled. She sits on good tyres and sports smart chrome-work. Mechanically extremely well maintained, tax and MOT exempt. These six cylinder models are now fast appreciating, a very capable classic that will hold its own in modern traffic.
