Mine was born in Zaragoza Spain, spat out of a production line after being fondled for a few hours by some sweaty Spaniards, lol
Its birth was registered and it was hand to its first dad by Vincent's of Ely in Cambridgeshire ;)

VV - mine was first registered in Northampton but was first sold by Arlington of Bedford which ironically is now a Merc dealer and about a stone's throw from where one of my best friends now lives.

I bought it from Sandy on the rankest estate I've ever seen. No wonder it's had teething troubles and got rusty wings...!

My old Mk2 was TT - Exeter yet the plates said 'City Motors - Oxford' and it started life as a hire car (the first owners were "Provincial Securities" which was a fake firm given by rental companies!)
