Dirk,

Sorry, that is all I have. It was a long time ago, and I only know about it
because someone mentioned it to me when I started looking for the one I
have now. If I find any more I will let you know

You could try asking the MOC or the IMOC if he is a member, but I suspect
not.

Regards
Geoff

Hello Mr Semler,

Thank you for answering my post !

Off course I 'd like to hear more about this car !
You never know !
But off course, it would be best if there is also 
a way to get in contact with the owner. 
IF this person would want to sell it, off course !
In that case, it would be best to have an email or something.
A number plate isn't very helpful to me. 
That doesn't mean anything to me...
(I don't know if there is a way in the UK to get information
about the owner of a car with a certain number plate.  Guess that is 
only for police !)

So if you have any more information: thanks in advance !

Send it please to zegellap@...

Thank you,

Dirk Van den Zegel
