Whilst trawling eVilbay for things I don't need earlier on, I spotted this:  Ratty linkyThe owner reckons there's paperwork to prove it was registered as 'Rat 1' at some point, and the car is located in the Westcountry. Looks like there's been some discussion on here previously re the whereabouts of the original car(s): Original Ratty RR threadIs it (one) of the original Roland Rat series cars? Who knows... |

Lose the spoiler and bonnet scoop set of coilovers and 13x8s and it would look ace! I would totally rock it!

RAT 1 was only a vanity plate for TV, it was never actually on the car legally.

287LOV is a 1963 issue plate from Birmingham, so something odd from the start. This car looks nothing like any of the Roland Rat car images on Google, apart from it being a pink 100E of course

The arches and front spoiler on the e.bay one look suspiciously like the 'Zakspeed' ones for Mk2 Escorts.

The car on offer and the photo in the post above do not match up. Rear arch flair is very different.

Did you used to be able to sell on your reg and then sell on it's replacement to?
I know nowadays your first replacement is "Non-transferrable" but maybe that was brought in to stop the above?

Vaguely remember a newspaper article about a dealer, ( registration numbers ?) who had the ratmobile or at least a pink 100e with appropriate reg number, well they were shown together,
