What a great car the Austin Maxi was, with this 1979 1750cc model being one of the most striking we’ve seen for a while!
From the seller: “Up for sale today is this 1979 Austin Maxi, it comes with keys, V5 Logbook, some paperwork and manuals along with a boot full of spare parts. Clocks show 78,840 miles which we believe is genuine. It has been off the road dry stored as part of a large private collection since 1995 and is in need of general recommissioning/restoration.
A lovely practical classic in the best colour and interior combination. It is of course being a 1979 car exempt from MOT, Tax and ULEZ amongst other low emission zones, the 1750cc engine is plenty capable of keeping up with modern traffic and they’re surprisingly economical, parts are readily available and good value too. “
