and it's Sun-Tor shaped. Taken it down to its new owner today 
Its been a fantastic vehicle and the in some ways the best condition car I've had for some time. I got it MOT'd and back on the road just before Isabel was born so she's kind of grown up with it too. Still, the new owner is exactly the sort of person who should have it next. He's planning on using it to get away at weekends to folk festivals but he was classic saloon car racing an MG Magnette until three years ago. The van will be sharing garage space with an 1800 equipped ZB Magnette, an MG TF and an amazing Simca Aronde like this one:
The Simca was only used for about 4 years in the 60's before being stashed away for 30 odd years. The Sun-Tor buyer acquired it, did all the brakes, gave it a re-spray but hasn't got around to doing the couple more weekends work it needs to get it on the road. It's sat in his garage for 5 years now but at least it is preserved and isn't deteriorating.
Anyway here's some pics for a decent send off
So, on to fresh things with four wheels....
