Interesting how the tyre manufacturer seems to be an important "feature" of the advert.

If anyone has a back issue of Classic and Sports Car May 2005, there is a 5 page article on this actual car.

It's the only one made right hand drive, made for the then owner of the company who lived in the Far East. The company went bust again when the Asian Tiger economy went bust, and the car ended up at Nicholas Mee car company along with 14 Atlantiques.

:D
