Would you be kind enough to check these:

They should belong to a RHD 1970 2.2e sporto

Good luck Jo. Caveat emptor and all that...

The 'unknown' with the car will be the quality of the restoration which I understand was done by the owner themselves. But - there are hundreds of photos documenting this. We'll see....

Let you know later!

Some nice looking cars, terrible web site, pics and info lacking.

ah ok, same one then. i don't have the VIN (although i did ask for it!).

if you pass jo please let me know. thanks. and if they tell you they've got other interest to push the price up, tell them it's me and that i'm not even going to look at it until you pass!

I actually know what they paid for the car. That tends to be advantageous in negotiations! Anyway - ahead of myself here - could be a load of old rubbish.

Hi

Is the car ex DDK as I seem to remember a 1970 RHD sporto on the Scottish tour in 2007.

The only pic I could find is this.

Kind regards.

That one belonged to Helen John, not sure if it's the same car?

Yes Helen did have an orange RHD T at the time but I think the second orange car in the photo is a RHD E sporto. Could be wrong, it wouldn't be the first time.

Kind regards.
