Anyone know this car?

It sat in a garage in Duns, Berwickshire for years and was sold to somebody in Aberdeen.

I'd be interetsed to hear from anybody who has owned/driven/seen it!

I think it used to belong to Tony Abrams at Hexham Horseless Carriages.

It was my car a long time ago! I too saw it quite a while after selling it in the Ford dealer in Duns. It was great fun to own and drive even when the exhaust sytem fell off on the way to the local TVR Car Club meet! Glad to hear that it's still out there being loved!!
Best regards to all, Tony

Hi - I bought PET888H from the garage in Duns when I was a student in Aberdeen.

Owned it for about 10 years now and its pretty much been on the road all that time.

Just been MOT'd and given a fresh coat of day glo orange ready for use on my 30mile commute out of Aberdeen !

cheers
Andrew
