    Nice looking 1a

    Just spotted this, engine bay looks scruffy but it looks nice in the pictures.

    I still miss my 1a! This looks like a good honest car.

    Well, ta. It should be in my possession by next weekend. A nice straight silver one.

    I just logged on to post about this?

    Does anyone on here live very close to this car by chance or know anything about it?
    It's a long way from me to go look and based on my recent experience with the blue one, it could be a wasted trip.

    I don't want to take the p1ss but if anyone is very close, I'd be happy to buy them a few pints to take a look for me.

    Cheers

    I'd want a proper 1a, not a crossover Donna. Plus, £1500 with the description you've written doesn't match up.

    Chrys, it's a little far for me to pop and have a look unfortunately. However, if you were up this way, you should call in.

    Cheers,
    Tom

    Thanks Tom. I appreciate the offer!
    Are you looking for a mk1a to use, restore or cherish? Any particular colour?

    I know of a couple up for sale that I could point you to depending what you are looking for.

    Cheers

    Hi Chrys,

    The silver car is just another side project. I'd love a 1a, red over black preferably, again to cherish at some point, but don't have the spare funds at the moment unfortunately. Plus, I need to clear some space in the garage that I have use of to store my stripped out blue one along with this silver one over winter.

    I'll put a post up about the silver one once it's in my possession.

    Cheers,
    Tom
