Wonder if there is any footage from the World Dealer Launch as this car and mine might well have been parked up side by side

I´m tempted Lewis.....

Well they could have both been at Tower Bridge Alan as if mine was there then yours could have been one of the BRG ones there.

They would make a rather nice pair! The earliest known 75 by VIN and the earliest known 75 by Registration!

Lewis - I'm so sorry you have to sell. I know when I came to see you how excited you were by owning this car. You would have been a great long -term custodian.

.

I'm sure you will make sure it goes to a good home. If I didn't already have 1 'S' reg I'd be keen, but alas space precludes it.

Good luck with the sale.

Present company excepted

Seems a few of us try to rescue these cars but it would be good if others would get interested as well before they vanish. Inknow it´s difficult with space but a lock up usually isn´t too expensive
