I saw this car, which i think lives in Great Missenden, but dont know what it is...can anyone help?

It was like a classic racing car (bright red) with only 1 maybe 2 seats, no roof, behind the drivers seat the body work is elevated so that its not symetrical, i think you could see part of the engine from the side. could be an old jag or something like that??

Cheers

I have seen [and heard] a red 250 TR, or a replica of one, hooning round South Bucks.

There's even a video on Youtube, on the roundabout in Old Amersham

Might be that one then.

When you say "you could see the engine" was it through the top like this
