Hi Neil,
Sorry to hear about your damage, hope it's coming back together ok.
I am intrigued by your car, as I don't remember a rear engined Metro being built by JM, is it a rebodied Imp/Stiletto ?
I don't think the special saloon regs at the time would have let it run in Metro form.
Also, Hi to Steve65, please pass on my regards to Malcolm and Bernie.
