I'll come over and drive XDL back for ya then. Unless she still has a blown engine!!

I'm sure you'll have this one Gary but I found a pic of an orange Mumford at Trentham Gardens MFR434P.
Matt

don't remember that one Matt, will look into that..

any chance of a copy of the pic?

As Raymond will confirm I am an utter biff with these machines of Beelzebub (computers).However I'll be seeing "The Flying Scotsman" at the weekend so I'll pass the happy snappies onto him as He's much more in tune with The Dark Side.Hopefully with some Devils' magic the images shall be circulated in due course.
While I'm on,the other North East Mumford is a MK1 1800 SDL in Aconite.It's on an N plate but I haven't got the reg anywhere.Richard Young has and says he'll dig it out.The car's a shed and lives outside.I went to view it recently but the bloke wants far too much for it.I made what I thought was a reasonable offer but he said he'd get more than his asking price on E-Bay.I told him to put it on E-Bay,it's rusting away and soon will be well past saving.What is it with these people ???

Is aconite that bright purple colour? Was that an original Marina colour?

People like that always make me wounder.. To be honest it would be ideal for me as I have a good sound '74 Coupe it could be grafted into.. All I need is a rough convertable.. Any idea what his ideal price would be Matt?

Yes indeed Ben
I offered him £600 but he said he wouldn't let it go for less than a grand !! If you're using a donor the state of this one's body wont be the issue and probably not the missing bits of interior.There's no Mumford boot badge and both the "one off" rear windows are badly cracked.He's put slicone on them to stop them coming apart.I would guess these could be difficult/expensive to replace.Having said all that it is a genuine Mumford which is why I made the offer to try and prevent it being lost to the dreaded tin worm for ever.The hood has been replaced fairly recently so that's a bonus.If you want the bloke's number I can dig it out.Just let me know if there's anything else you need to know

Matt

Sorry Chris I missed your question.Yes Aconite is bright purple,a bit lighter than Black Tulip.It is a genuine Marina colour option,usually coming with dark brown trim.

Very tempting ! ! It would of course have to be a car on the project pile but it all comes down to price. A grand for a rough shell is a bit but then again I doubt there are many about.. ? I have the details of a Mk2 somewhere down south but it was advertised a few years ago so may not be around anymore. If you could dig out the number I'd be very grateful.

Ben

Ben
You have a PM


Gary
Could you publish a list of Mumfords that you know about in case there are any that I've come across that you haven't ?


Matt

This is what i've got so far... plus the orange one..

There was another Lagoon blue one that Brian Dodd had after mine, but it dosn't seem to be regd anymore..

Cheers
There's also JUD33N another ex Brian Dodds motor in Lagoon Blue which he promised me first refusal on before selling it to some old guy who put a private plate on I believe.Such is life !!
I know of a white SDL that went to Ireland recently but don't ask about it or I'll cry.Do you know if your list includes a Damask Red MK1 in Cornwall and the ex Linda Lusardi ?

Matt

ooh nice work Gary

good stuff guys, do you think you will ever get that lot together in one place??

Thats the one Paul JUD33N, but have no way of traking its reg date now, the Linda Lusardi one, know its early as its got the cut down doors, i do know of it and where it is but not on my list at the mo as i've not got its reg yet..
