Hi Mike just had a look at the car and it looks nearly like the one that I was going to make a copy of see photo[IMG][/IMG] that is why I was selling this on ebay to finance it which I still have I wanted to use a scimitar with the v6 but after seeing your car I think I will have to sell my mgb gt and this to get one of you. I see that you will be at Stoneleigh next year I will have to come and see you. cheers Bill

Finally I found time and a dry day to bring the car home as it's getting knocked about in the workshop
It drove well and the new brakes feel much better, but it still needs some "road development" as the new wheels rub on full lock and the fuel gauge reads wrong!!Anything below half is empty
Yes, I ran out of petrol right on the round about in heavy traffic during the school run.

Unfortunately E-Bay is looming as investment is needed, shame as it fits so well.
The new Sammio looks like a VAST improvement, especially as it doesn't appear to suffer from the nose-heavy profile that rather detracts from the original cars.
