Recommended Posts

Same old story, young family forces sale.. Having owned this car for the past 6 years, I've had a lot of fun driving it and improving it along the way, but I just don't get chance to use it as much as I'd like and I'd rather see someone else enjoy it rather than it just sitting in the garage..

I've got it on Pistonheads for £7200, but i'm always open to sensible offers :-)

Its MOT'd till 28th Aug, its on an age-related plate (1974 - "N") which means it will be tax-exempt from this year!

I use the car for trackdays, autosolos (

), Sunday drives to the seaside (and Le Mans in 2011) and occasionally sitting in traffic on my way to work :-(

I intended on competing in an autosolo championship, but I've actually only managed 2 in the last 2 years, so I'm not sure i needed to put the effort i did into installing the hydraulic handbrake!

The car has never wanted for anything, its clean and tidy, but its not a show-car, I've always been in more interested in driving it than polishing it.
