I'm less inclined to believe OL 166 was a specific car. Particularly after looking harder at Austins site which clearly shows OL 3443 in a great many forms including a 6 inch drum Standard sports and a 7 inch drum EA Sports with stainless centre wheels.
But it will have got out of captivity at some point. Or rather the number will have.
And for the record, I doubt any manufacturer would have sent a car our new ex works with bent front wings. The bonhams/ebay photo shows a car with bent front wings.
