I know the history of that car. did B&H and Lyall Martin and Robin Irving bought it and played with it for awhile, even let me have a go, and it was then tidied up and had engine swap (one in it was tooo good to sell as standard) sold as a standard car.

Na did
nothing to this one, it was showing bit of wear and tear from weekend fun. Actually had Mk3 after this that blew most things away, it was a real sleeper. Guys reckoned engine had more ticker than me ole race car, certainly had low down grunt. was good fun. Bit like that 2Ltr you chucked together for me in Mk5 station wagon for the missus to go shopping, that was humour.
