If you want I could contact Roger for more info?

Hi rainbow, thanks for posting and warm welcome.

Yes it would be great if Roger can shed a bit of light on the history of the car as presumably the seller (whether it was Andy Rouse, or whoever) would have also provided documentation in what it had done up to the point Roger purchased it and it would also be good to know what happened to it after his ownership.
