Coincidence - I've just taken this photo, pretty sure I posted it before but it hasn't moved for a long time. Someone I know will probably know who owns it but I haven't seen the person for a while, will ask next time I see him.

Might not mean anything. They used to issue A plates to anything 63 or before when the original plate was removed. Almost certainly didn't leave the dealer with an A plate even if it was 63.

Saw that on local news last night. Thought I might pop over and have a look, except in ITV's 'News' article, they don't mention anything about the key stuff, like - where it is, when it is or indeed anything other than a banal Piece to Camera with a few lazy pictures.

Cheers guys!

1955. And the tax ran out this week! MoT exempt, so could soon be back on the road, taxed!

Cheers! Just a few miles away from me - reason I asked was because I saw one of the cars in the ITV piece at a local tyre shop over the last few days, so knew it was somewhere local!

I bought a load of Mini bits there in 1990. He (Chris?) hasn't changed much!

Hmmm I would doubt it, it looked rather ropey to me, a lot of work needed
