  • French title
  • Interesting European version
  • Original engine
  • Preserved condition
  • No reserve

As evidenced by its import plate and specifications, this Buick is an original European version. It had been registered in Paris since 1988 when it joined Jean-Pierre Nylin’s collection in the late 2000s. This sumptuous saloon is in original condition and was repainted at some point; the upholstery seems to be the one from new. It is still fitted with its matching-numbers inline 8 cylinders engine and paired with a manual gearbox. Calibrated in km/h, the odometer displays a mileage of 47,866 km; it had a mileage of 47,845 km when the last roadworthiness inspection was carried out in 2017. Front door armrests are missing and part of the front electrical wiring was disconnected.

Complete with its numerous chrome bodywork components and specific badges, this interesting version will require a good restart and a full overhaul. Buyers are informed that all vehicles in the collection have seen limited use in recent years, having been part of a museum display. They are therefore sold as-is, require restarting, are not covered by a valid roadworthiness inspection, and will need full recommissioning before being driven on public roads. Please note that the car comes without a key. Photos © Peter Singhof
