I got this car in Nov 2024 with an idea to trial it. I have since realised that it’s more of a hill climb/ sports car and is not what I'm after so I am selling it on. I have had fun driving around the lanes and going to local car meets where it always gets lots of attention. It is by no means a concourse car and has various small scratches, dents and old bolt holes here and there as you would expect from a used vintage car but I feel they add to the cars history and character.
