GarageScout Take

The Swindon Racing Engines-built Vauxhall, with its HPC head and dry-sump system, gives this Seven a serious competition-oriented specification, backed by the close-ratio T9 and custom brake hydraulics. Its identity needs care: assembled in the mid-1990s around a 1977 chassis tag, with paint checking on the fender tops and no established distinction between total mileage and miles since assembly.

Strengths

  • Swindon Racing Engines-built 2.0-liter Vauxhall with a ported and polished 16-valve HPC head, dry-sump lubrication, and fuel injection.
  • Mid-1990s assembly around a 1977 chassis tag, supported by a Wyoming title describing the car as a 1977 model.
  • British Racing Green finish with a yellow nose band and stripe.
  • Spare parts are included.

Watch For

  • The car was assembled in the mid-1990s around a 1977 chassis tag rather than built as a period 1977 car.
  • Checking in the paint on the tops of the fenders is shown in the photo gallery.
  • The odometer displays 3,700 miles, but the listing does not establish whether that is actual total mileage or mileage since assembly.
