HISTORY:
Following an inheritance, the car was sold by a notary office in Strasbourg. I was not able to test drive the car at the time of purchase. Anyway I was confident on seeing its excellent condition and low mileage. But on leaving Strasbourg, I realised that it was impossible to get past third gear! I started the repair as soon as I arrived to the museum.
