Facel Vegas

Sir,

I have recently purchased a Facet Vega HK 500 which is presently undergoing some minor renovatory work.

Obviously since purchasing the “monster” (as it is affectionately known by my wife) I have brought all the better motor magazines in order to obtain any information whatsoever on the marque.

Unfortunately the only scraps of information I have been able to find are always derogatory. Surely these powerful coupes were not as bad as write-ups make out?

Perhaps your readers could help me and I am sure that other Facel owners would be equally interested in any experiences Others have had.

Surely these cars can only become appreciating classics, which must be worth a lot of money in the not-so-distant future.

‘Thanks for a splendid magazine.
