If I hadn't recently bought one I would be having a closer look at this Tiger for sure Graham.

It looks a very nice restoration, I like the Colour, the interior, hood and panel fit, I don't like the lack of Metal hood bins and the fit of the Chrome strips down the length of the car.

Someone certainly spent a lot of money on it though?

It looks like the Anglian Auction car didn't reach the reserve, unsold I think.

Gary. It was well over priced at £30 to £40K when needing a total body restoration, a new interior and more - £25K is more like it.

Graham

It did look rough in the Photo's, especially the interior!

It will be interesting to see what the Blue car goes for in the July Auction, that one looks a minter.

Beware, that is a series V body. Only found on Mk2 Tigers. Me thinks a clone

The LRX car is 'round, round, round' correct for an early Tiger.

Yes. I hope the buyer conducted due diligence on the history of this car since there was none in the auctioneeers box.
First registered in 2017 and no info on V5C about previous owner(s).
Nothing at all. A brave or maybe foolish buyer!
