A photo sent to me some time ago by Lloyd Gleeson a VCC guy from New Plymouth.
This is Lloyd in Ralph Watson's BSA Special many years ago on a VCC Trial.
Last weekend Lloyd was in Omokoroa staying with our next door neighbour John who has known Lloyd since schooldays in Thames in the 1950's/60's.
Lloyd and John were attending a friends 80th Birthday Party and also visited another Vintage Car Guy Rod Smith who owns one of Lloyds previous cars a Morgan 4/4. - Lloyd still has another Morgan as well as this little " A110 "
The car is called " Binki " after a young Italian girl called Bianca who helped Lloyd with his French and Italian when at a European Car Show.
The car is a Mexican built one - apparently Renault had insufficient space for the full Alpine production in France so they were built in other countries.
Chassis Number is " 67MEX0146 ". built in 1967 in Renault's Mexico plant.
Registration sticker from Mexico which is still on the car.
Car imported in 2004 to New Zealand by Nigel " Hunter " Russell a Formula Junior enthusiast
