    The YMW_ _ K registration numbers were issued in Wiltshire June & July 1972, making Dick Lovett the obvious supplying dealer.

    Looking at it more closely my best guess is that the chassis number of the car is 03868. Originally azzuro blue and bought by Dick Lovett in June 1972.

    I know that the online Dino Register says this car was registered MYA69L, but that registration number is actually on 04518.

    And interestingly for me, this is the first Dino I ever sold back in 1984 !

    You are spot on there Mark. I should have twigged as I've seen 04518 a few times, most recently at the body specialist I use.

    FIAT Dino Spider tail/brake/turn light lenses. I imagine that someone replaced the buckets & rewired for running/stop lights below and turn signals above on all four lenses. I wonder what the motivation was, personal preference or...? Does anyone recall the history on this car?
    'just curious,

    Is it parked next to another Dino, or something else?

    It's not a 206...not sure what it is. No 206 exposed gas filler, bizarre front bumpers, totally wrong front grille....

    It's the prototype of the 206 GT. Filler trap is on the other side.

    Yes, it's a prototype Dino GT. Dino Compendium page 38 and 39.

    Front blinkers on color photos are in the bumper. On the body in the b&w photo. Same car?

    Not likely the same car. The interior on the B&W pic looks a lot lighter than in the colour one that is blue.

    This one was taken by the organizers of Dream Car Days in France a few weeks back (120 luxury cars were present) and posted on their Facebook page (I take no credit). Alas I had to leave just when these two appeared towards the end of the event and I was no longer taking photos at that point in time.

    The comments were from Mr Bendiksens son, and there was one owner (Stig Hagfors) between the ambassador and him so either it was resprayed or he remembered the chassisnumber wrong.

    There was also another photo posted of another Dino (L-series) that apparantly has been here since the early 70s and is now in a private museum:
