1963 TROJAN 200 CABIN CRUISER REGISTRATION NUMBER: 548 THN CHASSIS NUMBER: SAB 11049 ENGINE NUMBER: 3-1077 Originally blue. Restored in 1990 and repainted Primrose Yellow, it was featured in an edition of Practical Classics magazine later that year. When the previous owner purchased the Trojan in 1998 it was in good mechanical condition but needed a re-trim and a fresh coat of paint. It was decided to completely restore the car in the same colour, using original seat trim materials but adding Wilton carpet instead of the standard rubber mat. A Trojan specialist rebuilt the engine and gearbox. Since that time '548 THN' has won many awards including 'Best in Show' for three consecutive years at the Bristol Microcar Rally. In 2004 she won her class on the Concours stand at the Meguiar's International Classic Car Show, held at Alexander Palace. This event was open to all types of motor cars, not just microcars, and 2004 was the first time that a microcar had won in open competition. There have also been many appearances in magazines, books and even a 'Formula 1' cartoon by Jim Bamber in his book 'Pits 7'. Comes with an extensive portfolio of photographs, bills, MoT certificates, tax discs and other memorabilia. In superb condition.
