[emoji33][emoji23][emoji23] really!, well it fooled me on the odd occasion I passed it, mind you I had nothing else to compare it I guess, or perhaps I did see one at the old museum in the central coast, again a long time ago, getting old n senile [emoji12]
Mmm now and again they come up for sale https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/results?q=%28C.Make.Mercedes-Benz._.Model.SLR%20McLaren.%29&sort=Price

Why would you look at a Cooper S when this little hotrod is about half the price with a hot Climax engine and rarity: https://www.tradeuniquecars.com.au/detail/hillman-imp-920882 OOOPS the Healey Factory could be in $11 grands worth of trouble here: https://www.justcars.com.au/cars-for-sale/1964-hillman-imp-series-i-4-sp-manual-2d-coupe/JACFD5247611

A honey! Great to see the site update is done. It's a hell of a collection of interesting stuff,I have a soft spot (in various places) for these as they can fit a shoitload of prawns and beer (and the odd bottle of red) and still do 120mph! https://auctions.shannons.com.au/auction/lot/lot-1974-reliant-scimitar-gte-coupe/?lot=194&so=0&st=&sto=0&au=11&ef=&et=&ic=False&sd=0&mc=5&pp=48&pn=1&g=1
