CSY152C where is it now

Post by NikiDickson »

I stupidly sold my 2nd Lotus Cortina MK1 registration CSY 152C circa 2007 to a chap from the Argyll & Bute area of Scotland.
I do have a pic of me with the car a few days before I sold it but I cant seem to work out to upload it so if someone could let me know how to do it I will upload the pic.
Has anyone heard of the car since?

I just put the registration into google and I found an advert from 8th Dec 2010 for H&H auctions where it was entered into the auction but it was withdrawn. The listing stated that it had been recently restored for historic rallying at a considerable cost, though it had not yet turned a wheel in anger! The price estimate was £16000-£18000.

Hi Nicky I have just taken your old car. In swap and yes you're right it has been turned into a Tarmac rally car although I don't think it has ever been seriously campaigned, I am putting it back to road spec if I can locate seats etc. cheers jim

Hi glad to hear it is still in existence, I wish I had held onto that one as it was a sound shell and I paid very little for it :(
