The 1960 Sunbeam Alpine series II is a classic British sports car known for its sleek design and spirited performance. Manufactured by the Rootes Group, it featured a compact body with elegant lines and a distinctive convertible top. The series II featured an engine that was enlarged over its predecessor to a 1.6 litre four-cylinder unit producing 80 bhp. It offered a blend of agility and style, making it popular among driving enthusiasts. The Alpine's lightweight construction contributed to its nimble handling, while its interior, though simple, provided a comfortable experience for drivers and passengers alike

This attractive Series II example was originally registered in November 1960 and presents wonderfully in Lake Blue with a red interior. This Alpine is fitted with overdrive and has recently benefitted from a new vinyl roof, hardware for the tonneau, new door cards and exhaust. Also present is a rare factory hardtop. This classic convertible is part of a deceased estate and as such, has not been driven for a few years during which time we are informed that it has, it always been garaged. On a recent inspection, it started first time and ran well. Offered to auction with a V5C registration document, a buff logbook and an original sales brochure. With its charming aesthetics and fun driving dynamics, it is easy to see why the Sunbeam Alpine was the original car of choice for James Bond in Dr No where we see Sean Connery driving a Lake blue example in Jamaica.
