If you Google the history of the Lotus 7, you’ll discover that it was available as a kit or fully built... I can remember many many years ago going with a friend and his uncle to dealers somewhere on Glasgow, on the floor they had Lotus Europa kit laid out in bits like one of those exploded drawings. They a!so had 7 kit still in boxes. Always wished I'd had my camera with me !
	Black is not a colour ! .... Its the absence of colour

	I had no idea Volvo made a 245 van. It is an estate with a floor insert instead of rear seats and a bulkhead added behind the front seats. I'm not sure they ever made it to the UK but they were made in RHD for Australia. Seems they were cheaper than an estate so people would buy them and then get them converted back to an estate by getting seats added etc. One popped up for sale which is how I found out about them. Looks beyond my skill level though. www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/daylesford/cars-vans-utes/1977-volvo-245l-van/1268740308 Interior pic from an old thread here forums.tbforums.com/showthread.php?t=222527
