I remember Mark restoring that coupe when he used to live in Milton Keynes.

John / Gordon,

Sorry only just picking up this thread as I've been away.

I am so pleased to see 'my' car again, the price can only reflect the huge effort I put into its restoration and it was a complete resto. I am slightly saddened that it had to be retrimmed as the leather was sourced correctly direct from Connolly with the correct colour and grain stamped in as per their original records. I would like to think the door panels / cards etc have remained intact as these I recovered using what must have been one of the last batches of the original rexine.

Thanks for finding her again for me Gordon.

Mark,

I was responsible for the re commissioning of your coupe YDA 160 via Bob West back in 2004, and given it a new lease of life to the condition that we see it today, thus reflecting the price. I sold the car in 2006 and it has had one owner other than two traders inc the current one who is selling it. The trader who sold it before this, was asking a sale price of £30K!, A £12K+ profit for the new seller not bad?. Just shows what a good base car you built. I'm am so happy to have been part of this car's history.

Stuart.

Hi Mark glad you've seen it , I remember you saying before about the lengths you went to with the inside so it is a shame if that has all gone
