Manufacturer description

Another touch of nostalgia from the 1950s comes with the Sunbeam Rapier Mk III which was launched in 1959 with some upgraded features over its predecessors, including modified side grilles, a new registration plate recess and redesigned side flashes. The windscreen pillars were also upgraded to increase visibility and even the interior had a makeover. It appears here in an attractive light green metallic finish with black roof and side flashes, registere4d VKK 266. The interior is also black. Manufactured by the Rootes Group, the Sunbeam Rapier went on in production into the mid 1970s.
