That really is lovely, Tony, thanks so much.
A couple of other things have been acquired recently.
The Archive doesn't have any of these and I jumped at this one on Ebay the other day after being alerted to it (thanks DH) Sadly, we don't know the actual model of car, but Mr Alan Rayner(?) owned GWL 282 and recorded his weekly mileage. I suspect he may have been a salesman with a regular round. The year started with an odometer reading of 10,130 and by November of that year, he recorded a reading of 28,892. Fuel costs and oil plus some mechanical work (valve grinds etc) are also recorded
This is also on its way
which I followed up having seen it offered on a Facebook group. The chap wanted rather a lot of money for it initially, but when I pointed out it was for the Archive, he reduced his asking price by some 60% which I thought very kind of him.
Hugh
