Vehicle History

Remarks

I present the car with 327 photographs on a memory stick comprehensively documenting its 3 year build programme. Numerous papers & invoices are included in a file showing most parts used in its manufacture. Engineered to a very high standard, I consider my car to be among the best presented vehicles in the UK Cobra Club. Further photos are included showing the car attending various car shows across the West Country. One annual service invoice absent. MOT (no advisories). Ronan Seal, a member of the Cobra Club purchased the car from its builder in October 2016 selling it to me on 5/5/18 at 1,706 miles, making me the 3rd owner.
