i think that maybe bl should have made this. it looks cracking with the self made skirts all round and the square lamps and fogs.

That was at Billing in 1992. Some Minor idiots wound the driver up about how their Twin-cam Minor (another waste of a good engine!) would leave that for dead. I have never seen anything leave a slip road so damn fast in pursuit of the jellymould .... it really proves just how the 'Scrote would have had a fight on its wheels IF the idiots at BL had put the right engines in these cars....... :(

The vehicle details for VNN 234S are:

Date of Liability 01 09 1998
Date of First Registration 02 11 1977
Year of Manufacture 1977
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 1998CC
CO2 Emissions Not Available
Fuel Type Petrol
Export Marker Not Applicable
Vehicle Status Unlicensed
Vehicle Colour BLACK
Vehicle Type Approval null

Looks like its dead, then.......... :(

shame, it's a nice looking car. would be nice to have another coupe converted to tally front, looks really smart.

8) As you know i`m not a great fan of Itals but this does actually look quite good, then again i always thought that Itals looked best in Black...maybe because of the grille etc :wink:

8) I reckon if you were going to do one you would need a mk3 coupe to get the look right on the back end, the flat rear lights would suit it better than the early ones :wink:

There was a free mk3 going and I said we should have got it but you said you weren't having any more cars.
