Finished in a stunning Sapphire Blue with a cream leather interior, this 1995 Celebration has been with its original owner since new and has just ~35,361 miles on the clock. Complete with its original bill of sales and 14 service stamps, the most recent being on 22.04.2025, it also comes with three sets of keys and a fresh MOT valid until 21.04.2026

The Sapphire Blue paintwork has an even finish and is free of significant road wear.

There is some mild age-related paint finish hazing noted, along with a few minor marks and paint blemishes including small lacquer damage on the front wings and what appears to be a series of small scratches on the bonnet.

The front seats are in good condition, being super picky, we did notice the driver's seat has mild bolster creases and a little loose piping, there’s also a small mark spotted on the passenger seat.

The rear seats are in very good order.

The dashboard, switchgear and controls presented well and everything is said to function correctly.

The walnut veneer finish has been well preserved, with just a minor fracture and fading spotted around the vent on the left-hand side - the facia and centre console finish are in great shape.

The silky 4.0-litre straight-six engine fired up immediately with no hesitancy. The engine management lights all remained off as the exhausts remained clear of any smoke. Idling smoothly, there were also no suggestions of engine fluid leaks.

The engine is cleanly presented, with mild signs of age in places but appears to have seen regular maintenance.

The four-speed automatic gearbox was demonstrated to change quickly and smoothly, with no reports of hesitation on kick-down.

The car's ride was demonstrated to be as smooth and comfortable as you’d hope for, with no unwanted noises or unevenness. The car soaked up the road with no knocks or vibrations.
