Post by: noyzboy on January 06, 2010, 05:54:41 PM
Spotted this Ro80  in the BP garage on the A33 near Rotechniks a few months ago.
Only just extracted the pics from the phone.
 Does anyone know this car  ???

Ha Ha! It\'s mine. I was working at the BP that day installing new equipment and a friend in Guernsey who had borrowed the car from me returned it with a tank of fuel, so I thought I\'d use it for work. It needs a couple of front wings, a respray and an interior retrim but is otherwise a very sound car. I went to Germany to buy it, it\'s a 1967 (4 plug engine) and is the second oldest known surviving Ro80. Well spotted!
