I adore the old Europas, they are odd looking cars, but so cool.

Is that the renault engined version?

Yes, its got an original renault engine, adjustable rear shocks and links, and some interesting body mods including rear air intakes, harnesses and alloy dash. Makes a lovely noise and very planted on the road. Tax exempt and only £75 a year to insure, happy days!!!

Brilliant buy! Chapman's obsession for many years. I met a guy at Silverstone a few years ago who had dropped GT40 suspension and running gear into a Europa. He'd carried out a few body mods as well so it looked like a 47. He said it had about 470bhp and sounded like thunder when he started it...

since having a matchbox version in purple i love these cars!!! i still have the model too!!

The Europa is a car I used to really dislike. However, as I have gotten older, it has just grown and grown on me.

Yours looks fan-bleeding-tastic mate!! Enjoy!

The back looks like a roof box, minus the aerodynamic design !

And the front...

The only thing going for it is the 70's should pads, curly perm, Level 42, red colour.

Each to their own, I love it ,rare, good to drive and different from the usual euro boxes and lots of boring stuff out there.

[bishbash]

I am guessing you mean 'shoulder pads'?
They were from the 1980s.
Level 42? - 1980s.
Red colour?
That car is a lovely little thing and will handle like a dream. I would love one
