General description :
Monteverdi was a Swiss company that built luxury sports cars. In 1978 the introduced the Sahari, a ‘small and more affordable’ SUV compared to the Safari that was on the market since 2 years. Monteverdi only build the car for 2 years so only a few example were actually produced. Our example was built in 1978 which makes this one of the first ever produced. First delivered in Switzerland and today still with a Swiss title. The car probably only had 2 owner because the title wasn’t issued any more since 1983 (‘long term ownership’ ?). Some time ago the car was completely rebuilt and overhauled, a lot of money being spend. Engine, gearbox and all the other technical aspects of the car have been revised and remain in good working and driving order today. The car has been completely repainted (‘two tone’) and the paintwork is still perfect. Nice detail of this example is that it can be partly converted into a convertible. The underside is free from rust and he panel fittings are very nice. All together a rare example in a very good overall condition that even we don't see that often.
