Default My latest 75

The car I've just bought is this 75 at Rotherham MAG Car Auction it's a 2001 75 but I would estimate it being either a 1999 or a 2000 after having a look around as it's got some stuff that I have never seen on a 75 it's needs a new MOT and welding at the rear sills

Doesn't appear to be a Cowley so unlikely to be a 99 or 2000. What bits are unusual to you?

Default My latest 75

It will be a 2001 model Thomas, I had an early longbridge car and it had 99% of the ppd bits fitted.
