Changed a bit since I followed it through the tunnel at Goodwood.
What a beautiful noise Jules Holland made with it :-)

Careful now! The first car is his old roadster Lightweight lookalike with steel body. The green one is the Simon Dunford lowdrag that he bought when he sold the roadster. It was a bit of a nightmare and completely reworked and rewired by CKL.

That would explain why they look different then banghead
Sorry.

That car doesn't look that expensive in the ad. Thinking about it, I think I've seen it advertised elsewhere as well.

IIRC it's been offered at auction (or 2?) in the past few months.

Hmm 5k less than the price listed in Classic & Sports Car. Not bad for a recreation though.

I know this car pretty well and I think they are flying a kite here. It isn't that good for the money and there are better in my book. Knock another £10K off and perhaps.

A well known car often driven to good effect by Martin Stretton. Seen here at Silverstone 2008

Minshaw family I believe, might explain Demon Tweeks prices when you think what other cars they own including "birdcage" Maser.

A shame TUF4 has gone from Minshaws hands. He now has:
