Yeah, That's the thing - it's for sale, claiming to be a works car, but heavily modified, and the only reference I can find is on the 77 Lombard. The seller also said the 'works driver' was an Italian driver called Markku Saaristo, but he's Finnish. 67 2000 - Fitted with 2.5 o/d - 2012 RBRR, 2015 Essex Rally, 2016 HCR, 2016 RBRR 67 2000 Estate - Dormant 70 Herald 13/60 - First car, many bits 77 CZ 125 Sport - 70 miles on the clock 77 Kawasaki KM90 - Shop hack 81 Yamaha DT125 - Many bits 88 Ginetta G4/4 - Dead 88 BMW E30 320i - For Sale 89 Citroen AX GT - Rally car! 90 BMW E30 318iS - Building to FIA spec 90 Mazda Eunos 1.6 - 'Popeye' 93 BMW 530i - Donor 95 BMW E34 540i - 4L V8 |

Quoted from Jonny-Jimbo 1st hit on Google! 13. SCE 645S This was the only works TR7 not built at Abingdon, It was assembled at the Safety Devices factory at Newmarket. It was only used once by the works team at the 1977 RAC rally and it had a 16v sprint engine. Markku Saaristo and Ian Grindrod brought the car home in37th place overall. The chap selling it appears to work for M-Sport so id imagine he would have had a good idea about it tbh. I wonder how its been heavily Modified? |

If the reg number is as you say, and not what he told me via email, that would explain why when I googled it I didn't get any results!! 62 Vitesse 1600 - Slammed & modified67 2000 - Fitted with 2.5 o/d - 2012 RBRR, 2015 Essex Rally, 2016 HCR, 2016 RBRR 67 2000 Estate - Dormant 70 Herald 13/60 - First car, many bits 77 CZ 125 Sport - 70 miles on the clock 77 Kawasaki KM90 - Shop hack 81 Yamaha DT125 - Many bits 88 Ginetta G4/4 - Dead 88 BMW E30 320i - For Sale 89 Citroen AX GT - Rally car! 90 BMW E30 318iS - Building to FIA spec 90 Mazda Eunos 1.6 - 'Popeye' 93 BMW 530i - Donor 95 BMW E34 540i - 4L V8 |

Quoted from Jonny-Jimbo Very true, also when it is stated in the advert - Im informed that restored to it's original state its 80 grand Makes me assume he thinks he has a clinker. |

Quoted from Jonny-Jimbo Sorry, what I mean is he most likely thinks a lot of what he has if he is putting an 80k final price tag on it considering its history isn't fantastic. Id like to know his asking price and what is included, it would still be nice to have. |

I talked to him a fair bit (he's a friend of a friend), and he just wouldn't put an asking price on it, only 'open to offers'. For the right price, it would be nice to have, but then what is a rotten TR7 shell worth?? 62 Vitesse 1600 - Slammed & modified67 2000 - Fitted with 2.5 o/d - 2012 RBRR, 2015 Essex Rally, 2016 HCR, 2016 RBRR 67 2000 Estate - Dormant 70 Herald 13/60 - First car, many bits 77 CZ 125 Sport - 70 miles on the clock 77 Kawasaki KM90 - Shop hack 81 Yamaha DT125 - Many bits 88 Ginetta G4/4 - Dead 88 BMW E30 320i - For Sale 89 Citroen AX GT - Rally car! 90 BMW E30 318iS - Building to FIA spec 90 Mazda Eunos 1.6 - 'Popeye' 93 BMW 530i - Donor 95 BMW E34 540i - 4L V8 |

Definitely a works car, it is on the list of factory cars. It was entered by the factory in the 1977 RAC rally. |

I understand it's been standing for the best part of 10 years, and it currently does not have that engine, gearbox or running gear, although i may have misunderstood the sellers messages. 67 2000 - Fitted with 2.5 o/d - 2012 RBRR, 2015 Essex Rally, 2016 HCR, 2016 RBRR 67 2000 Estate - Dormant 70 Herald 13/60 - First car, many bits 77 CZ 125 Sport - 70 miles on the clock 77 Kawasaki KM90 - Shop hack 81 Yamaha DT125 - Many bits 88 Ginetta G4/4 - Dead 88 BMW E30 320i - For Sale 89 Citroen AX GT - Rally car! 90 BMW E30 318iS - Building to FIA spec 90 Mazda Eunos 1.6 - 'Popeye' 93 BMW 530i - Donor 95 BMW E34 540i - 4L V8 |
