Possibly looking for a Sprint

#1 Post by Bumpa »

I have been Dolly-less for a couple of years now and keep thinking I ought to get a Sprint before I'm too old to enjoy it. I've seen this one on Car and Classic https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1890701 which looks nice in the photos, but is in the Isle of Man, creating all sorts of problems with going to see it. I wondered if anyone might know this car which was on the mainland before the current owner shipped it off-shore. Is the price reasonable?

Have you messaged the seller to get the UK reg it had?. Might give some here a better idea of its previous owner etc. I have car mates on the island and could ask if they would go and see it maybe?

Good idea Tony. I'll message the owner about the UK reg it had. And if anyone on the island fancies having a look at it, that would be great too.
