Hi all. I've been looking for an EVENTER for a while now,
and haven't had a lot of success in finding one.
Condition doesn't matter that much as I'd be hoping to do
a full resto,anyway.
Neither does LHD.Steering wheel either side is OK.
If anyone comes across a suitable candidate, can you remember
this enquiry and direct vendor in my direction ?
Thanks for your assistance.
Regards JG

I was wrong and checked Classic and Sportscar too. However, I'm certain I've seen one recently but that's no help!
Thanks for looking x200. I appreciate it.

Jeremy Wade was advertising one in this months XK Gazette. He's a very well renowned guy in the XK (50s type) scene, he supplied the XK140 that Octane's editor, Robert Coucher, drives as his daily mount.

The Lynx Eventer he's listing is one of the two 6 cylinder cars.

I can't find a website, the phone number in (01630) 657502

No connection, I just saw the ad.
Thanks. I,ll follow that up A8. I never knew that there were
any 6cyl Eventers. I've learned something...........

Hi JG,

Have a look at my web site, I've registered about 55/67:

http://www.lynxeventer.com

Sorry, it's only in french but an English version will come as soon as I'll have completed the French version far enough.

I know about 6 or 7 Eventers curently for sale in Europe.

At my knowledge, there should be three 3.6L:
- N°22 was for sale recently in Australia. Far away from UK I should admit but if it's your quest...
- N°42 is owned in UK and is not for sale for what I know.
- I haven't any info's about the one for sale by Jeremy Wade but I'll be very interested to know more about it.

Feel free to contact me if you like to get more info's...

I will find one, I'm sure.
I'll be in touch via your website.
Thanks again.

Sacrilege....................surely they could have found
something else for banger racing. And sold this on to someone, anyone
who was prepared to restore it.
The guy MUST have known what he had here.There's any amount of
mass produced tat would done for this purpose.This is effectively a
bespoke car he's trashed !
This image has been in my head all day !
AAARGHHHHH !
