Yep,
It was owned by two forum members so I wanted to know if anyone could shed some light on its history before I get a train from London to West Yorkshire.

All

This is actually my car - and has generated quite a bit of interest.

People on the forum will know the car via its old registration number Y69NLB (I have the car on a private plate).

I bought the car from a forum member from Bradford who's dad owned Panda Engineering (used to be part of Holeshot Racing). His name was Steven Hobson (if I remember correctly). I think his forum ID was S4HOBSON or HOBSONS4 or something like that.

He bought the car off a forum member called Dom (again I think).

Hope this helps.

Cheers
