Good spot. Looks like 'crooz' type stickers in the rear windows too. You'd have thought they'd whip those off!

Edit: TeamAMGUK!

Who also have an Instatwit account with the evidence (presumably that's how you found it op). Not the brightest sparks! laugh

Reminds me of an ad I saw when I was recently 'window shopping' - https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/...

"1 lady owner" mentioned 4 times.

I've always liked console in colour, lifts a dull black interior. I'll give you the red belts wink

It's the constant references to '1 lady owner' that make me nervous wink It does look like a good example though.

One lady owner to me means it's not been looked after as it won't see a garage/dealership until it's broke any little dinks will be fixed as cheaply as possible & in general are cars to be avoided.

The above photo wouldn't really bother me because if I'm buying a 63 then I'm planning on giving it some stick myself.

Imagine the uproar if we started puting one careful male owner. No kurb rash, clutch wear or makeup smeared interior.

After seeing how my girlfriend, mother and sister in law treat their cars I wouldn't go near a one lady owner car.

Revved hard from cold, up and down every curb they can find and every speed hump hit at speed.

I would much rather the male enthusiast owned cars that you often find on manufacturer dedicated forum sale pages. At least there is a good chance that they have documented the cars past in a reader's cars thread.
