Is this the car that lived up in Manchester?

I'm not sure of it's distant history, but it's the car that was converted to a turbo by Martin whilst owned by Rottbott, who is a little more south than Manchester I believe.
The original engine now powers Alistair's car.

Rob has moved all over the place. After the conversion the car lived in Lancaster for a while and regularly got driven to Nottingham, then he lived somewhere in Cheshire, now he's in Newcastle when not trying to sort out his A610....
He actually did a lot of miles in it after the conversion, and also parked every day for a while on a field, which is why it's so filthy underneath!
