UPDATE,its not going to qualify until i jan 2018,just had a look on the goverment website .still be nice to know when it was made though.had quite a life this old car of mine.exported then re imported,spent the 1980's in the south of france.converted to right hand drive,converted to v8 power and a 2+2 conversion carried out.the car still has its original sills though,they have never even been patched,not bad for a Speke built car,cheers greasemonkey..
