Nice work Geoff. I owned a red one of these. Easy car to drive and repair and a car that caught attention back then. Your build brings back good memories.
I have this kit. It is time to build it.

Great David, they were quite popular here in Australia, I remember them well. When building the kit good luck with the 3 piece windscreen. I have to confess I asked my skilled modeller friend Mat to do it for me.

There can be few better examples of what is typically British than to design a car with retractable headlights and then fix them 'open' as a cost-cutting measure.

@charles-rockett Lol. The funny thing about that observation is that I would bet it wouldn't have become a bit of a cult classic if the headlight could recess.
