Bush Tucker Man:
As mentioned elsewhere, I saw 2 rather nice 110's this afternoon in Wetherby
The first one was a Double-Cab in a vibrant shade of green, complete with a yellow chassis.
At first glance as I did when I encountered it, it looks great.
However, look at the registration.
How can he legally have a coil-sprung, Tdi'd, double cab that was supposedly manufactured in 1967/68.
Is it worth the possible fine, hassle & (possible?) criminal record in order to save £170.00?
Obviously there may be a perfectly legitimate reason for this, but I just can't think of one off-hand.
The other was far better (in my opinion) a gorgeous 110 Heritage.
Bronze Green, but let down bythat grill & the silvered hinges
They even have green leather seating as well! (even the sideways facings)
TULL:
the grill looks like its off his BBQ

Believe it, or not, that's the standard grill as factory fitted.
A Heritage is still high on my shopping list, but I think I'd have to get a 'proper' (Series 1, 2 & 2A style) mesh grille manufactured.
Andy.:
Very nice that 110, could just see you driving that with the dogs in the rear :D

Unless it's a cherished plate then I'd start to wonder if it wasn't built from stolen cars anyway. Under the points system you can in theory rebuild a car over a period of years but how you would justify a replacement chassis that wasn't compatible with the original axles I can't see.
