Re the sprite,
Interesting Registration, almost like the countdown to detonating a UXB, (unexploded bomb)
The car still has it's front bumper, not many did, because it got in the way of the handle for lifting up the bonnet.
Looks like a 1959 or 60 car, as the '58 cars had press studs to secure the hood against the top of the windscreen; afterwards it became a steel bar, that went into a slot by the windscreen rubber.
Memories,
No more though, because they involve young ladies. and one of them is still my wife.
Regards
Mike
