The son of the owner added a photo of it just before storage and it appeared to be really tidy. Got a link? Just out of curiosity mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks as though it was last taxed in 1996. I've just googled the plate and it looks as though it was sold cheaply around a decade ago but remained in storage. Weird. It certainly looks really solid though- message the seller and see what he says... Skizzer and RobT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobT Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Blimey. MoTd it sold for £660 in 2011. Edit: scrub that, it couldn't have been as it's not on the DVLA site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was keenly observing the Brightwells sales back then, and whoever bought it for £660 got themselves a steal. Unfortunately it looks like they got bored with it after discovering other things.

Dick Longbridge Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Right, I've done a bit more digging. You're in luck- turns out the seller is the same fella who shared it online a couple of weeks ago. Somewhere in amongst the comments is a photo shared by the son of the previous owner apparently. It's been cleaned up and is running well, allegedly. Buy it...? https://m.facebook.com/groups/386501541463902?view=permalink&id=2882233551890676 Edit again: The seller is doing it on behalf of rhe long term owner. The long term owner is selling as he stored it when he got into race cars and shifted his interests. Here's the chap..

This car used to live outside 18 The Avenue in Kilburn. I took several photos of it when I discovered it was there. EDIT to add: if I had the cash to spare, and travel wasn't restricted, I'd be heading to Bradford this week to view it and make a realistic offer. This is a car I had seen in the past - it was pretty good back then - and I had wondered what happened to it. Would be grand to bring it back here. Unfortunately I don't get paid for my casework until the end of this month. RobT and Dick Longbridge 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Potential bargain in the parts section. It's been slightly giffered on the nearside but could still make a nice reliable runaround given the mileage.
