My brother and I (Chris and Peter Wray) purchased XOO 346F (or it could possibly have been XOO 348F) from Chris Meek/Tate of Leeds in early/mid 1973. The car was in Doug Niven's Border Reivers colours and I believe Meek had taken it from Niven in a part-ex deal.
We only wanted the car for it's 1790cc BDA engine which we put in another Escort and sold the Mann car (probably mid to late 1973 and sold from the Sheffield area) to Stuart Turner who lived in the Manchester/Cheshire area. This car was later sold to Alaister Lyall but it may have gone through dealers between Turner and Lyall. I then lost track of the car.
Of course in those days an ex-Alan Mann car had no more value than any other racing saloon car - if only we knew then!!!
