A rare vehicle and one of two known in the UK.
An unusual model based on the 145 estate car but with a factory option high roof and tall tailgate. Very large load capacity especially with rear seats folded down.
The car starts and runs and has what i believe to be the original B20 2000cc motor. Single stromberg carb. If you click on or copy and paste (into your browser) the link to photos you will see a video of it running.
Starts and idles ok, sounds quite smooth and quiet running.
It has a 4 speed manual gearbox with overdrive.
The clutch is not working which i believe is why they stopped using the car. It was parked up for some years unused.

A proper spot at Anglia Car Auctions I popped into Anglia Car Auctions to drop a few bits off and, as always, had a quick wander. This 1975 Hillman Hunter GL immediately stood out. It’s heading into their June sale, and while it might not be the loudest car in the room, it’s exactly ...
You don’t need a car to feel nostalgic. Sometimes, it’s just a sign. A faded Castrol enamel. A worn RAC warning plate. Even an old ice cream board that’s seen better days — they all tell a story, and for a lot of people, they bring memories straight back. We spotted these going ...
