Robert,
was that a private plate on BOB15B ?, I presume it must have been...... do you have a record of the original plate for that car..... someone I know bought an identical white s3 with the same red stripe that was originally supplied new by yourself.... that car was A82 WOM..... don't suppose it was the same car? It had your dealer sticker on it and a 3 Spires sticker in the door shut.

Hello Ian
BOB 15B became B238 FOA, sold to Norman Heeks 23 March 1985
A82 WOM sold to Malcolm James 24 Feb 1984..

Here's the only pic I have of one I gave to Mrs. to drive for a while.
I painted the lower half and wheels to match the interior.
I don't know it's reg.

Great-looking little car... little compared to the gargantuan 626! :lol: There's one of those parks round here sometimes, I noticed it first because of the bizarre grille-mounted foglight arrangement. That must be quite a rare car nowadays, can't imagine there are many '85 626s still around
