Fitted with a 1147cc petrol engine. This one was registered in January 1964. Read more about the Bond Equipe here.

A lovely example of a Bond Equipe GT 2+2, registered in May of 1964. This is, of course, the earliest incarnation of the Equipe, only produced between April 1963 and September 1964, when it was replaced by the GT 4S. Designed by Lawrie Bond, it was built with a fibreglass body shell, over a Triumph Herald chassis, and an 1147cc Triumph Spitfire Engine and gearbox. This gave it a top speed of 90mph, with a 0-60 acceleration of 17.6 seconds. What a car!
