Morning all
Spotted this CS on ebay and was wondering if any one knew the car or previous owner or was close enough to take a look and advise on it please?
cheers

The Welsh number plate might indicate the car's previous owner wasn't local to Bournemouth?

Nibbles might know of the car and there are other GT-Four stalwarts down that way who might know. I suspect if the previous owner was elderly he probably had the car squirrelled away out of sight of the GT-Four cognoscenti. Definitely sounds like its worth a look.

Not one I know.

I'll ask Lewis when I see him next.

I saw this and was tempted by it myself but need the money for my ST205 and don't really have anywhere to store it. Looks like it might be a bit of a gem possibly, the seller doesn't have any of the paper history other than the old MOT's but said he would contact the old owners and see if they could unearth the history and CS certificate.
