Yes but absolutely no detail. Have you any info Nik?..... W(p

I'm showing it as a 'Probably Scrapped' Series 1, no colour and no location for where it ever lived.

The reg is now on a Citroen.
Citroen!? Blasphemous :o

I don't know anything much, Dave; some fella posted on Tim (Captain Bizarro)'s thread on Retro Rides saying

You want me to drop him a PM and see if he has any more info he can shed?

Yes Nik.....if you're volunteering.
If you don't mind doing that it would help to complete a missing bit of info. Like the Colour if he can remember.....where it was last.....that kind of thing.

Let him know that we already knew it existed.....he might be impressed......more likely he'll say "What a load of anoraks"

'tis done, Dave ;) I'll let you know if he gets back to me.

I did say if he didn't want to pass on any info via me then I could give him a direct contact address to you, I assume you'd be OK with him having an email addy if it comes to that?

that silver fb looks very tidy on the outside/inside. i wonder if the underneath is in as good a condition, as you'd reckon this
car was looked after and has just maybe not been used for a long time.
