THE LISTING

About this vehicle

This needs a lot of work. Engine does turn over. Previous owner had been using it. Looks like most of the trim is good and is with it. Good start for restoration or parts. Registered historic. V5c present. See photos for condition. Description from previous owner,1978 Vauxhall Viva 1300 GLS HC. The GLS is basically the standard 1256cc Viva with the twin headlights and all of the trim of the larger-engined Magnum. As you can see from the pictures, this one doesn't look great on the outside, but look inside and things don't improve in the slightest. It used to be my daily drive to work, so was doing about 18 miles a day and that even included some hills, which were climbed at marginally more than snails' pace. It has now been stood since Covid lockdown, as heart surgery and having young children got in the way of doing anything with it, so will need recommissioning. It needs an indicator stalk, head-lining and the driver's window doesn't open. I bought it in this condition in 2012.
