The write up says...
The build included work by March Engineering on a donor Daimler chassis in 1984 (the V5C date of registration) and the car has covered less than 4,000 miles since in the hands of only a few enthusiastic owners.
It seems like if you have a lot of money you don't need to follow the rules 😁

Hmm, sounds a bit iffy in my opinion ! 1984 Jaguar / Daimler donor car, can't quite see it under that body !

for 100k you wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole would you

This one is back on the market again despite being sold at auction a while ago. Not sure why but its back at the same dealer, perhaps the auction sale fell through ?

why would you buy something for 100k that is registered as a 1984 daimler when a daimler didn’t have a separate chassis so basically
no matter how you look at it you can’t insure it legally nor MOT

it’s an expensive ornament

Wanted- - triumph wire wheel adaptors

As the title says I am after a set of Triumph Herald/Spitfire (95.25 PCD) wire wheel adaptors.
The long type as used on MG 14" or 15" wheels
Nuts and spinners would also be nice. :biggrin:
