A microcar from the 'golden age of motorsport' which languished in a barn for 50 years has been painstakingly restored.
The 1959 Berkeley B95 Roadster was one of only 178 produced and a sister model was raced by Stirling Moss.
This example competed in events in the 1960s before being stashed away at an unknown British site at the end of that decade.
The vehicle was rediscovered in 2014 and the previous owner started off the project to bring it back to its former glory.
They sold it to another fanatic in 2021 who completed the job and the car is now up for sale at Ashley Automotive, of Bournemouth, Dorset, for £14,990.
