Further info:
This handsome P5B was supplied new by Harvey Hudson Ltd to Marks & Spencer PLC whose then Chairman (Mr K H L Steiner) used the car solely for pleasure. Upon his retirement in April 1976 the vehicle was transferred to him (signed/dated letter of confirmation on file). In 1985 it was sold (to the now previous owner) whom during some 29 years of ownership spared no expense in maintaining the car with a huge history file containing many thousands of pounds of invoices from such specialist as JRW , ELY & T&T. Now displaying some 61,500 miles, the vendor advises SGO 147L has "very good" bodywork and engine, "excellent" re-trimmed interior and "good" paint - some 19 accompanying MOT certificates indicating that this original and low mileage example has been cherished by its owners. Offered with original jack / tool kit, original service book, manuals, Swansea V5 and current MoT.
PLEASE NOTE: We have been advised by the ex-PA to the then-M&S Chairman, Sir Marcus (later Lord) Sieff, that Mr K H L Steiner was in fact an employee of M&S who was related to the Marks and Sieff families by marriage. According to his recollection the car was not the property of Lord Sieff himself.
