Nope, he sold it more than a year ago to a bloke in the north of England who is going to use it as a template for making replicas.

Simon is right that I sold the car a year or so ago. The car itself is being built into a last off the line FIA Group 4 car. Kevin, the new owner builds historic championship winning MK1/2 Escorts and he is now in the process of building "new" FIA Group 4 131s with 16 valve heads, independant rear suspension, Kugelfischer injection and all the rest of the gubbins, all of which he is remanufacturing.
