Who has seen this?
It's on e-bay but not yet on the vendor's website.(Bradley James Classics)
45K..... yeh, no missprint 45,000 pounds, almost - 44,495 to be exact!!
A race car apparently, with a slightly optimistic figure attached, I should think......
Nice paint job, it has to be said.
OK, there is (& should be) a spec sheet attached, but if I was spending THAT much dosh
I would be expecting the engine to be 'red lined' at AT LEAST 7K! At the moment,
I'm having great difficulty in understanding where the money has been spent/gone..
And some of the under bonnet cosmetics leave something to be desired......
Spot welds on O/S wing, mastic around the redundant heater vent..
It is quoted as making 143BHP (I seem to remember).... That's pretty impressive, if it's
true, from a 5 port 'A' series! And only 1298! 1293 or whatever, it should have read I think.
I wonder if anyone will 'stump up' the money. As you've (no doubt) already guessed -
it won't be me! Best of luck to them.
