Humber Sceptre Mark 1 1964


This  is my Humber Sceptre that I purchased in West Yorkshire England upon my arrival into the UK  Dec 2000 in one of the coldest winters in 20 years. Here the car is pictured in a -18c chilly morning before embarking upon the long slow drive up to the  Highland of West coast of Scotland where I live. Sadly having to leave the UK I sold the car in Edinburgh. A real tragedy, now I am home again in Australia I so wish i had the car to add to my 2 Hillman Minx Series 111a saloons.
The car is in immaculate condition and has just a mere 49,500 miles on clock. For a British car it has almost no rust at all, and an near new black interior. Its mechanics are completely stock standard and the overdrive unit works superbly and smoothly.
