L was two steps above base, there was Merit inbetween. The 1.3 engine had only recently become available in L trim when this car was registered. Brochure link

Tip from someone who's been through this shitshow recently - try different postcodes on the testing website. I live in Surrey, couldn't get a test based on my postcode, put in a West London postcode and got offered a test in Chessington. Nobody at the test centre checks your postcode, just your name.

Wow, I didn't think there were any 1.3 Sierras left. Seller says he was planning to put a 2.0 engine it, hopefully it will be bought by someone more sympathetic to its rarity.

As everyone* likes an Invacar, I'll nominate this one from Six Cylinder's Motoring Notes thread.

The car or the marriage?

The Golf is still with its original owner! No wonder it looks so original, long may it stay that way.

Arse. I don't know how I managed to do that, maybe I missed a gantry sign.

Someone is so proud of their Yeti that they have used screws to make a 1 into a T.

The white car in the Chester pic. If it had been a lowline (flatter roof) then that would have narrowed down the date.
