Just read this in the Telegraph, does anyone know the car or a link to the description. Just out of general interest, not involved.

The article says it’s been reshelled into a G series. If that’s right I can’t imagine Coys will have a leg to stand on.

Unless his lawyers are rubbish and fail to explain it properly.

It also says it’s on aluminium engine cases.

It’s a brave firm that sells a car like that to a billionaire without specifically declaring those things.

I have sent my further thoughts (with an updated guess) to Nick via pm - which is what I should have done in the first place - & also asked him to edit his post to remove my quote ...

I don't wish to 'tarnish' the history of any car unfairly so have edited my earlier posts ...

Some 73 RS’s had aluminium cases.
