Description:
One-owner and in great condition. Just needed the lightest of lubing to get it running smoothly. I bought it for £41 from a secretary in Orpington, Kent. She'd learned to type on it at the start of her career. I don't know the official colour designation but I call it butterscotch over pistachio.

I'm an opportunistic collector and user. Yep, I have a habit, but I'm in control, OK?
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Groma Kolibri on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Groma Serial Number page and the Groma Kolibri By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
