Missed this thread, some nice images - like the MkII pictures - we had one a few years ago it was a 2.4 in Golden Sand (Gold) with the wire wheels. A full four speeds and overdrive

Dam that was a cool car - it turned EVERY single head when you drove past. We would come back from somewhere, and find about 3 people each time crowding round it to look inside etc. It had a dodgy fuel pump, and so every now and then decided to just cut out. We sold it to a guy in Germany called Wolfgang which was odd as he'd only ever seen pictures, yet agreed to buy it and came all the way over to pick it up! Ahhhh..........good times!
{edit} a couple of old pics of our old MkII - photos of a photo
