Title: Another Chocolate Lime...??
Post by: peteracs on August 08, 2017, 10:03:38 AM
Hi All

There I was happy thinking Mark's car was pretty unique in the UK, when I happened on a classic car rental site and saw this

I assume the interior is lime or did they have an option on the interior colour, difficult to see in the photos?

Blimey! I picked up a leaflet for these people last year at the NEC - ' drive you own classic car ' was the tag line. Not sure I'd want a stranger driving mine or when I'd get time to chauffeur people, but it sounded like a laugh and a bit of petrol money.

Hard to see but don't think it's a green interior. I think you could pick an choose. I have seen a brown and mustard and a brown and tan vinyl on various sites.

looks like the mustard colour trim so it must be a crunchie

The ad says year 1979, but shows an early Series 2? Could they have got some pictures of your car off the web and Photoshopped them Mark? It even has the coach stripe?

Seeing the coach stripe alerted me too, but the bonnet and exhaust are different.
