I spoke to the owner of this a year ago at trax 2010, its the brother who built it originally (if my memory is correct), was a sound bloke and a gorgeous car, so many 90 touches to it

Yeah bradford or as near as dam,it is mate !, This was the one that really started the 16v turbo route.
I loved Nova's before this came out but it just sold it for me. Iv'e just started to restore my 1988 GTE. But gunna keep it standard in the looks department.
Just wish I had A16vTB
And no insurance sucks !!!:(

You have a bad memory!

Jon Shield originally built it as an XE, which Chris Courtenay then turbo'd back in 1992, by which time the C20LET had arrived! Then it got sold around a bit and eventually ended up with Steve Lomas who had it for 10 years, THEN sold to his brother pritty much 'as-is'.
Can you tell i read the TV feature on it today!

Yeah H 16V TB was the first LET conversion.

A 16V TB was originally an XE with a Courtney Turbo conversion, but I think it may now be changed to a LET................
