Might need a bit more to go on Frosty, they all came with Dynamics and 65 of the UK cars were Black. Even if you knew whether it was Black Sapphire or Jet Black you’ve still got 51/14 to pick from.

Yeah I imagined so, it was really just to flush out if the owners would be on here. I did not take a picture as the car was behind a couple of others, but side on to the road behind a fence - looks like it was at home.

I will keep an eye out and if I see the owner out of the house will stop and say hello.

I know there is one that has been off the road in Copford for a while, I can't remember what colour it is but it had a private plate on it.

I've lived in the area for years and have never seen it driven on the road. Judging from the MOT history it only moves 1.5K a year, which probably explains why.
