Smile Stunning Duotone 75.

I was in Longfield, Kent today & a duotone 75 passed me going the other way. It was a Mk2 (05plate) in Firefrost (bottom) & what looked like Raven Black on top. It also had a Premium bumber. I couldn't see if it was a V8 or not but I was gobsmacked & couldn't stop thinking about it all the way home & wishing I could have spun round to catch it up!!

Dave the top car (KG05) is owned by someone in Colchester. He told me at the Manningtree show last year that he bought it directly out of the showroom when the car was just a few months old just after MGR went bust.

Lewis..

I believe the Duotone with the Premium grill was at the Cosford meet and as far as I can remember the owner had not had it very long.

However I may be mistaken, the Duotone's are so rare I should have taken more notice..

He was Dave. The Duotone was two cars away from us and its the first time I ever saw it. He told me he lived at the top of my road! He then came to manningtree the next week.
