Certainly does... Out of my price range (as are most things these days) but it'll be interesting to see what it goes for.

And a '53 Oval on the same website. Described as "probably one of the best in the world". That's a big claim to make.... looks very nice though.

Rob, this is a bit cheaper than the standard Zwitter- it might be in your price range! :smile:

'57 looks bloody good aswell.

With the UK reg Nos and the stories on the cars,looks like someone's joined the importing business.

Yep, I noticed that as well, George. Consecutive reg. numbers.

Wow - that looks pristine!

Genuine query (totally not criticising!) but shouldn't a zwitter have chrome round the split rear window? Or is it the case that some did and some didn't?

But if that's a standard, why does it have chrome bumpers?

Okay... but am I right in thinking that splits never had the chrome round the split rear window?

Other than Zwitters,Splits did not have the alloy trim around the back window.
Yes you're right in your thinking.

Are you home now Dawn.Or is your brother still lucky enough to be driving your car ? :wink:

Thanks. It really is a minefield!

Well, I'm now down in London permanently but the zwitter is staying with my mum for now so my brother gets to play with him. Hopefully, the zwitter will be on his way down to London some time soon as I miss him! :wink:

If only mine was as gorgeous as this one...:smile:

I have looked round that zwitter a few weeks back and heard it running, is a truly stunning car. The restoration its had is top notch, the owner is a great guy. Who ever gets it will be very lucky indeed 🙂
