Well , if the docs are according to that data plate on the seatbase - it is a ringer & where is the main nomenclature plate photograph + it should probably have a Leyland Cars VIN plate under the bonnet . btw Lightweights were never chassis pre-fix 901 , BUT somebody could have moved all that bodywork over to a early S3 88" civvy petrol..

 

There are other rivet-counter dating features remaining.

 

IMHO - RINGER

Concurred. 24v battery box between the front seats but no shunt box behind it. and what the hell is that engine?? 200 TDi??

The shot of the data plate apart from showing a civilian data plate for an 88" also has the holes where the military sized plate used to be.

The original dog's breakfast! Truly deliciously horrible. Look at the pic of the dash......I love the way the vent screens are gently vomiting a deluge of rust over the scuttle! And the fleabitten TD motor sitting amid remnants of Series ancillaries. Frankenstein's monster....or motor! I also love the barefaced cheek of asking £5k for this rat heap! Someone shoot the poor thing.
