I saw one on ebay a little while back in theUK, though it was rotten as a pear.
Remind me of a Renault 17 a little from the front.

Nope, they were well up for it, but BL pulled the plug (sorry, the British Government) on Leyland Australia as they went into production and the majority were crushed. AFAIK, there is one Force 7 in the UK and very few in Oz. It is actually the car on the cover of one of the Driver PS games......

I'm kicking myself at the moment because i took a picture of one at the Merrist Wood car show a few years ago, but can't find the picture. I may have it on a disc somewhere, but don't have time to look for it right now.
It was in red primer and had wheels which i can only describe as what the A-Team van had on it!
I've got a feeling Mrtiki (if thats his name) went along too, so maybe he got pics of it?

i have pics of the uk red primered one in the uk hampshire area from wheels day a few years back. spoke to the guy about it and its not a rover lump in it because the V of the engine isnt the same! but yes it does look like a rover lump! i think he had chassis 001 which was believed to be lost, i do remember seeing it on the bay for sale as well last year? or maybe the eyar before. don't know what happened to it after that.

I'm seeing the appeal with these, bizzarely I like the 4-door saloon more than the Coupe! Though the coupe is not without its charm too

I too wanted one of the Aussie brethren for my stable. I'm not sure on how I'll do it - but I'm a patient man Saloon for me too. Coupe looks a little like the mustang debacle to me
