Thats ultra rare. only the very last ones had the ignition key on the steering column. And this probably is one of the last ones going by the Reg No.

Yea traficators are cool, ours has indicators as you can see. The seats are a bit doomed, well the front ones anyway but they are origional, the covers were there when we bought it and the guy we bough it from had the car when it was only 6 years old! So he had it like 30 years. The wood is very good, needs a sand and a varnish. The paint is ok from a distance but it needs a complete restoration really, there are a few holes in the floor and stuff! But it goes and it will do 60 MPH, maybe more.

Your paint and wood looks excellent, im trying to find some paint right now since the paint is fading a little.

As oppose to what? i know the earlier models had the ignition in the centre under the speedo. And it’s right hand drive too obviously so it’s always on the right hand side, this side of the pond usualy.
