The chassis and suspension have been thoroughly revised, resulting in tight, responsive road handling with no play or unwanted noise. The front end has been recently serviced, and the car sits confidently on chrome wheels that complement its vintage styling. Braking is handled by drum brakes at all four corners, which perform straight and reliably—true to the car’s original configuration.

Exterior & Interior Details
This BN2 retains its classic proportions and timeless appeal, enhanced by subtle performance upgrades and period-correct details. Inside, the cabin features a wooden steering wheel that adds warmth and authenticity to the driving experience. The upholstery and trim reflect careful preservation, with no detail overlooked.
