Oh yeah that would be great! Well at least she is still taxed, so must mean she is in a roadworthy state!? Cheers Tom.

Yeah Tom I imagine its still being used, Not found anything yet. Any idea what area of the country it might be in now?

Well the car was bought from elfords in Poole Dorset by my grandad, but it was an ex demo car, so it was 4 months old when he got it, so he was the second owner. He sold it to a man from up north somewhere, who had been looking for a good example for some time, and when he looked at my grandads, bought it right away for £2500 if I remember rightly? But I don't know his name or where he lives? If he still owns it, he is the 3rd owner.

Brilliant well done.

well done indeed,

a happy ending

I did not realize it is in Birmingham (or is it just the ebay seller as it is his brothers car), I'm not aware of that 75 in the area, only three or four around here

It's in bromsgrove, near junc 2 m42. Not been on the road for the last 5 years, and as the ad on eBay says he has covered less than 5000 miles in 11 years! So I don't spose you would of seen it!? I remember it had done almost 82000 miles when my grandad sold it in the year 2000, so it all adds up. Just can't wait to see it again. Cheers Tom.

That's amazing you managed to find it! What a stroke of luck! Pop it in when you have got it and I will have a look over it for you.

I don't think the owner is on the Internet, it was his brother that put it on eBay. So maybe that's why you haven't seen it on any forums etc. I'm going to pick it up Friday 2nd dec, so a week today, can't wait!! Cheers Tom.

fa57gta · #18 (**Post Link**) 04-12-11

Picked up the car yesterday, and it's as I remember it! Just got to get her back on the road now. Cheers Tom.
