Wow, I've seen these raffles pop up on Facebook and always assumed they involve some scam or other !!!

So assuming this is straight up, welcome on board and bloody well done sir ! :thumbright:

Good call on the wheels, You may be a bit limited in what you can do if it has humungous discs and callipers fitted, but imho more tyre in the wheel to tyre ratio definitely suits these better. (other opinions are available)...

Agreed, pick it up Tuesday once I get it will look at some older style that will fit over the discs but yes I am very lucky with this

Very nice indeed, those photos look like they are above the A1M in Hertfordshire, I may be wrong.
You say the car was serviced by Norton Way Motors. If so I may know a bit more about this car and who looked after it, again I may be wrong but once you get it home and dig through the paperwork, let me know and I'll see if I can fill a gap or two.

Nice looking car. I’ve just seen that you have requested me as a friend on Facebook, which one of the four lads are you, not much on your profile.

So my suspicion was correct, this is the car I thought it was. It was parked in the Mitsubishi dealers showroom opposite Duxford Air Museum until recently. I will send you a PM with the contact details of the guy who knows a bit about it. It used to be red once.
