well i bought No 273 then sold it on as i couldnt bring myself to selling my fiesta zs then i bought No 381 which was crashed damaged so i broke it for bits and still have the logbook and shell and ive now bought No 230 which again was crashed damaged and i i bought it off a girl not far from me who hadnt owned it long but sadly hit a patch of diesel on a wet round about and sent it sideways into a lampost to cut a long story short she had her insurance void cause she didnt declare her point so paid the recovery charges etc and got the car back then a friend of mine wrang me and asked if i was interested in buying it as it was extremely cheap so i asked how cheap and i would have been an idiot not to especially when i had all the parts to fix it

Possibly the guy that's just bought mine was the old owner as I know his name on one of the other sites has 230 in it and he had owned a racing puma.

A lot of speculation there though.

One of my members owned FRP 230 for a while last year, he took it in as part payment for a Tickford Capri. Was in great condition, but once he had done a HPI and found out it had a record he got rid. Offered it to me first for a good price, but I was at the time deep into a rebuild of FRP 394 and 230 had almost no history and no documentation corobarating the low 23k miles, so I let it go. Silly mistake, for I still don't have 394 finished!
