Hmmm yeah I think she's rotton. Another green one too if you look closely. I'd give my left nut to have a green one. With fender mirrors. Mmmmm fenderrrrrr mirrorrrrrrrrs.

There's always the VIN No. on the bulkhead to ID or record a shell. Please drive back to Derby Nik......

I love that mushy-pea green as well.
A lot of little Euroboxes and mass produced Korean/Jap cars are being turned out in purest green this year. They must have read our bloggs.

I sold a pea green series 1 to someone in Derby back in 1989..... what a coincidence that would be...

The guy who used to run the workshop for Richard Knight cars in Kilburn used to have a pea green series 1 elford back in the early 80's, come to think on it I dont remember any other series 1 elfords.

Sadly, it's not my pic, I saw it in the "abandoned cars" thread on Retro Rides. If it matters to you guys (Dave? ) I can PM the guy who took it and ask him if he'd mind trying to get the VIN number?

And yeah, I noticed it was the pea green inside too. Funnily enough, I like that colour too though I kinda feel it's wrong somehow. That interior's definitely wrong Maybe it's cos of "that" SA in the Mazda museum and all those photos we all feel well disposed towards it?
