Hi Frank,

The estate is the old Richard Clayton/Dave Richardson 1.7 Mk3 Estate - I drove it to the Nationals in Norfolk when my Coupe was off the road. Dave had done a lot of the mechanicals. Simon/Dawn/Tiny have done the body and had the upholstery retrimmed in the original fabric - lovely. Simon did the body, but the restoration pics show Dawn flatting panels etc. I think that's its now her daily driver - could be wrong.

For my personal opinion (whilst I loved the Coupe, Estate, Ital and don't want to play down the effort and effect of these restorations), the star for me was the Pickup, relatively low mileage, mostly original panels and paint, not perfect but definitely what you call original and maintained.
