I saw the letter in the MMOC Mag regarding the Artic Monkeys Video!
I did a DVLA Vehicle Enquiry and that car was possible Taxed and Running in 2004!! :evil:

Not sure if the You Tube link will work but this nasty video is on here under Artic Monkeys - Fluorescent Adolescent.
I thought it looked cool driving on the video but WHY they had to destroy itI don't know.

Did anyone know this car?
:cry:

As I watched I could see all those spares I could have re-used if they had not set fire to it! :evil:
I bet when it was bought they told the person selling it that it will be used in a film and forgot to mention they would wreck it.

thats my old car . it was a 1972 18sdl auto . i added the tc bits after buying it from matt hetherington .i sold it in 2000 to a guy who wanted it for his uncle to replace a marina that had been wrote off in a accident. i was offered the car back last year. after the owner died. i told the person to get in touch with the owners club.

Bad as it is to see another car destroyed, i suppose if you look on the bright side at least that car is now immortal, like so many other classic cars that have been destroyed in this way :wink:

There`s a J` reg saloon over here on the island Larry but the owner will not part with it at the moment, we are working on him but Jim doesn`t think he will let it go :( , he has a massive collection of old BL cars as he used to be one of the islands main BL Dealers.
