Looking for my favourite Ultima

[johnnygriff]

I've spent all of the last three years looking in the classifieds for a car but my budget doesn't stretch far enough. If I'm honest, I'd like my old Ultima Sport back. I loved the shape, the rawness and simplicity of it and whilst 365hp is modest by today's standards, it was enough for me.





Registration S689BRC
Last taxed and MOT in 2009
Last sold (I think) by Total Headturners

Anyone know where it may be?

Thanks, Johnny

I have had regrets about selling cars In the past, let it go, build a new one, at a pace your budget will allow

Worth a call to Total Headturners (if they still exist) but you may have more success talking to Richard at the Factory. He will probably not give you the owners contact details, but may contact the owner with your details.
Most cars need parts every so often so the Factory is the best place to try to trace a car.

Barrie, I had thought of building but it'll cost twice the price or more of a s/h Sport and living in one country, working in others, and five children doesn't give me much time. That'll be a retirement project.
I have a lot of memories with this car and, no offence intended to GTR owners, I prefer the rear end style of the Sport with the integrated spoiler.
Good idea, thank you Paul, I will give Richard a ring, although if it's been off the road for six years, I'm not sure much has been going on with it.

If/when your search is successful be prepared for it not to look as good as it does in your photos.

Great choice of colour BTW.
