Wow, that's a rare spot Paul. Don't think I've seen an A series in Essex since my dads mate who came to see us when I was aged about 8 (circa 1977!) and he had one! That was the car that started my love affair with Manta's!

alright dave ,i wondered if you would pop up when seeing this,hope all good mate.

yes it was a rare sight,like i said i have seen it before but always on opposite side of road. i would love to know more and the ironic thing was i was with barry in his newly acquired manta gt ,i had been having a play with it as it had been running a bit shit so was taking it for a test run up the a127 when i saw the a series.

glad barry got another manta again tho ,i dont feel so alone now lol

_{Hi Paul, good to hear Barry's got another Manta. Really pleased for him. Will have to catch up with you both soon mate. I'm still about, just hard up and this cold weather is keeping the car in the garage!}

_{Mines currently SORN'd anyway, but I'm hoping it won't stay off the road too long now. Just finding the cash to MOT and Tax it is the problem!}

_{Will have to find out who that A belongs to and have a good look at it. Will keep my eyes peeled.}
