Imported into the UK during 1999 at a guess.

MOT expired on 30 October 2014 but strangely the MOT history check says it was first registered in 1991...

Mate of mine lived in Monaco for a couple of years, there were quite a few dust covered cars in the garage under the apartment block he lived in. I used to use an underground car park in St John's Wood which had similar cars in too...something about being rich and not having enough time to enjoy these things!
