Cheers Keith, in fact the lady who has sold it has that picture as it shows the only two in existence and it goes with the car. It will appear at the Tour de Lux this year.

I'm guessing it's the one which has been on eBay for a while, but now appears to have vanished (I guess as it's been sold!). It was a nice looking car :)

We never had the option of Chromescent paint. Is this in addition to your 80th Anniversary Adrian?

Think you are right Colin as I have never seen them apart. They turn up at both Longbridge and MGLive together. Think I saw them at one of the Fests too.

Yes, they came together to the last Fest when I was on car park duties and they wanted to park together.
