Very RARE VENTORA FD manual with overdrive gearbox. Car is nearly 45 years old and at the price I am selling it for, it is not perfect , but who would, think that . Car was resprayed apparently a few years ago. Bubbling under the paint at the front wings, vinyl roof is white , but there is bubbling under it at the rear. The seats are all good , except front drivers has a split in the seat. All gauges and dials work , but fuel gauge reads full all the time. Drives as should , no smokey engine on start up or at all , no unusual noises . Door cards are poor, headlining is good , all electrics work. PRICE £3300.00 a pound for every cc. email jim.on@hotmail.co.uk SOLD

I don't know how to add photos on here, have a look on classic cars for sale , or type in Ventora for sale on google , lots of pictures on there of my car. I have the car in a secure lock up , I hadn't started car in 2 weeks and after 4 goes it fired up, no blue smoke from car. I've bought a air filter , a new windscreen , well you never know,lol. A new clutch cable too, just in case. I have other spares , belt , hoses, badges. Car drives spot on, needs some fettling. Read advert on classic cars for sale, cheers jim

I think that's a definate Now if Jim would amend the ad to include price and location in both title and body, it could get removed from purgatory and back into the general for sale area

Hi Fred, I have had the car 2 months nearly. I have been offered a capri 3.0 and a Granada MK1 , no not the 2 of them, lol.I can only afford one of them. Wings on the Ventora need sorting out , they have filler in the front and it has bubbled up, If I start on the car , sort wings out, replace vinyl roof and sort out door panels I will keep the car. So £3000 and it sells or I start on the car in March and have it spot on for the good weather .

Damn, been after one of these for ages, got the money - stuck for space right now,(long story involving failed house move) still got it come march or so, when I will have a decent space for the venerable Vennie will pull your arm off and leg off bookmarked in case !

Hi All , car is reduced to 3000 pounds, that will save you 200 pounds on the repair or replacement of the wings.
I have a brand new , yes new windscreen original too , bought it on ebay, got to be worth 100 quid too.
So grab a bargain , I am in Bexley borough near Dartford , mobile is 07423 43 44 87
Got some viewers this weekend , it might even end up in Australia, as some guy who called me from Queensland , is sending his uk mate over to have a look.

Thanks Sean , for adding the photos.
Had 2 views this morning and took them for a spin up the A20 to M25 and around the M25 to Bromley and back , drove spot on
I have been offered the full price of £3195.00 .
I don't think , they saw the ad on here.
Just waiting for the money , so it looks as though its SOLD.
Mk1 Granada coming soon .
