This particular Beta coupe is a rare UK RHD model fitted with the 1.6L engine and 5 speed box, perfect for spirited driving with better fuel economy. Coming from long term ownership, this one was stored for several years until its recent sale to a local garage owner who purchased the car due to its straight and undamaged panelwork. Some restoration work has been done in the past as documented in the accompanying photographs, yet the majority of the vehicle appears original and untouched. This Beta coupe is ripe for rejuvenation and with a little fettling could possibly be used as is. There are one or two areas of bubbling in the paint, the bonnet bottom lip would benefit from tidying, yet the rest of the paintwork presents nicely with a few blemishes in line with the age of the vehicle. The interior is largely complete with the exception of a misplaced rear seat base and door cards. The seats would benefit from covers or a re-trim.
Engine is sweet and sounds fantastic. Some maintanence work will be required before the car can be driven. Being 1977, it is MOT exempt.
