This famous Lola 212 as mentioned once before, was bought in the UK by my lodger at the time, on behalf of a Kiwi, and is now owned by Billy Apple. Towing that car behind an 1116cc Mini from Cheshire to Nottingham was an interesting exercise.

Dave Walker's youngest daughter was best mates with my wife's daughter. Dave, Richard Atkinson (below) and Alan Lacey (TVR) seemed to have similar car collections as all were also members of the Reliant Scimitar Club. To date, I think these are still the only Volvo 3 Litre Marcos in NZ.

Little did I know that 5 years later, this Marcos would be mine... To this day, the only car that I have ever owned that wasn't a direct descendent of the old BMC/BL/Rover/MG/Land Rover stable. Oh, and the only RWD car I have ever owned other than the Magnette.
