My father had a chance to buy a similar Westminister (immaculate condition - black color with auto transmission, rear folding tables, smiths heater and original uphostery) in mid 90's. It belonged to Jessop & Co. at Delhi (Golf Links). The car had been recently overhauled at British Motor Co. and done less than 1000 miles since the work.
He won the tender bid for Rs. 7,000/-, but the papers / RC got lost on its way from the Co. HQ at Calcutta to their Delhi office and the tender eventually was cancelled. It might have ended at a scrap dealer. |
