It has had a little road use but has never been used in competition so is ready for the next owner. It could be raced or rallied in it's current form and would provide an ideal entry into competition. It has a custom built trailer that could be available by separate negotiation. It is eligible for a number of race series including Equipe GTS, HSCC and Ecurie Classic Racing or you could go the rally route with events like Le Jog and Tour Auto. Plus the car would be welcome at the MGCC race meetings.
