    Always liked this car, just wished it could've been twice the size.

    Looks a little bigger than the Minor - maybe Morris Oxford?

    Looks real weird when the fenders don't fade into the doors...But it seems like a Minor though...

    No it was built by Lee McDouall, then was sold to a couple, the guy was a Cliff Richard impersonator :))). He sold it a few years ago to a guy named Graham Spencer. It had been updated over the years and was blue with scallops and the tail lamps changed for 2 59 Caddy's a side. Graham had planned to put it back to its original guise but I think he has health issues and was trying to find a good home for it last year. Interesting bit of trivia, I bought the original 40 lamps off the Cliff lookalike about 10 years ago and ended up selling them back to Graham at cost.

    Ah, thanks for that KoppaK.... mind you, in many ways it had loads of El Ritchie's trademarks didn't it?
