1997 FORD ESCORT GTi

1965 SUNBEAM TIGER MkI

John Welman’s Tiger is one of just two built by Rootes to be a photographic model for the updated ‘Mk1a’ interior, having a later interior fitted to an early body. Restored to fantastic condition, the anachronistic interior has nonetheless been maintained.
