Hi peeps

Has anyone on here ever owned this car? If so, any background would be useful. I've just put a deposit on it 🥰

Thanks
M

Hi, I've not owned it, but I did see it on Autotrader and did an MOT check on it using the .gov website. I'd class this as background info.

MOT check

They current owner, Michael seems a genuine chap and he's certainly spent a lot of money on the car. I haven't had a chance to drive it yet as it's pending an MOT. I don't think there are any hidden nasties

It does look a very tidy example and the yellow really makes the lines stand out, welcome back to the fold.

No she was a lady from the Midlands, or possibly Stockport - I was interested in this yellow Plus briefly when I was having major problems with BB years ago.

I think this was owned by Peter Kilkin who sold it to John, it then went to another chap and then sold on again to the present owner.
