Hello
I have just purchased a 502 2.6 Lux, the car was owned by Prince Addul Elan Bin Said up to the late 1980's
The car was totally renovated in 1988, including engine and gearbox rebuild. Previous to that the interior was retrimmed in dark beige Connelly hide, new dashboard in walnut, new Wilton carpet and a wool headlining (cost £17000 in 1981?).
Car has an interesting history it was impounded by the Inland revenue in the UK for being used on its original number plate 23043 (not sure what country the number plate was registered in) and driven for several years with no tax, insurance etc. Car was returned after import duty was paid.
The car was lent to a young lady by Prince Addul from 1978 to 1981 drive around Grosvenor Square in London for several years.
I found the car in a barn in Scotland looking a bit worse for ware, interior is like new, it starts and runs great, starts first time, the body and chrome work have suffered. The car is currently stripped back to bare metal, I was pleasantly surprised how little rust is on the car.
The worst part of the car is the bumpers, has anybody fitted the polished stainless bumpers available?
