Inca with a grey primer front????<br>
<br>
Seriously, having talked to the Mrs and my Dad (whose garage it would sit in), I've asked the seller a few questions. I'll see how it goes before I make a bid. I'm (naturally) liking it already because of the colour <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=

As I mentioned in the other post, my wife has given me a very low limit on what I could pay for this car, so low in fact that it is almost surely going to be outbidded. So I am not going to bid anymore if anyone else was interested.<br>
<br>
I did speak to the owner, a nice chap called Tim, and got a bit more info off him. If you're interested, PM me your phone number and i'll tell you what he told me.

Not as far as i know Alun, or he could have magicked the car through an MOT with little work.<br>
<br>
He had a broad Yorkshire accent, which was nice becuase I felt myself slipping into my native tongue (I sound a hotch potch "generic english accent" these days from having to speak sloooooowllllllyyyy to southerners and welshmen for 14 years). When I came off the phone my missus said "I guess he was a Yorkshireman then?", I was like "Yeh, how could you tell?", "Well you started talking like you do when you have had a night out on the pop with your brother....." Heh, wait until I've lived in Gods Country for more than two weeks <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=
