In 1956, the Mk. II Consul, Zephyr and Zodiac went on sale and known as the Three Graces. In 1956, they were all restyled with a new 'family' look. The six-cylinder engines were enlarged to 2,553cc and power increased to 86bhp. The Zodiac and Zephyr were also offered in two body styles, the 'Highline' and 'Lowline' depending on the year of manufacture, the difference being 1.75” cut from the height of the roof panel with the 'Lowline' also benefitting from a more rectangular instrument cluster. This later Zodiac Mk. II presents in excellent order throughout having benefitted from significant time and investment spent on it in recent years. The period two-tone maroon and grey paintwork is in very good order with the grey interior commensurate with the exterior and fitted with wide bench seats, front and rear. It is easy to see why these were such popular family cars. The six-cylinder, 2553cc engine runs well with the car used infrequently in recent years since it last changed hands. The engine bay has clearly also been looked after, and it is easy to see that this example has been much loved and cared for. Supplied with a V5 registration document and a history folder, this case in point certainly speaks of the 1960s load and clear. Consigned by Edward Bridger-Stille
