I, and no doubt tens of thousands of others, entered a competition to win it several years ago. Wonder if they've still got our entries? The car was at the NEC the year before last, still being worked on.

Re: westie
He didn't sell it , he swapped it for an MGB V8. It will be coming over to France in June for the Bagheera 40th anniversary celebrations, along with a convoy of other UK Matras.
