I believe one forum member (naskeet) has one, but he hasn't been on lately.

Hmm...I wonder if this was one ? Bought from a vicar in Crystal Palace for £350 around 2003.
Sold it to a bloke from Holland. He stayed with me the night Liverpool beat AC Milan in the 2005 Champions League final.

It seems to be missing the vinyl on the roof and C-posts.

IIRC that was only applied to 4 door cars as a device to clear the last few Toledos from stock before the launch of the Dolomite 1300 in 1976. the 2 door car had been dropped a year earlier in 75. It wasn't only Henly's that did this or something similar, I worked at Stewart and Ardern in North Harrow around that period and they did some end of run LE specials too. Not to mention the 1500SE which was a factory runout LE model.
