1961 Vauxhall Cresta

While the later PA Crestas lacked the flamboyance of the earlier, three-piece rear window/large taillights models, they still have a fantastic American presence. H&H’s car had been restored over a period of 10 years, was said to drive nicely and had been in a private collection since 2001. The auctioneer was right on the money with its £8-9k estimate and it was bought well.
