And there you have it,cars making big money in the eighties.What would happen if MBL were to reach these shores? Yes it has the right to ware the reg number but it would never be allowed to be used on the road using that number,it would therefore never be worth the amount that Mick's car is because of the suspicion that would surround it.Similar case with BMO541B,the long nose version,it has most of its original ally body but because it is referred to as a "North American" car by two of the "Formost" members of the MGCC,the current owner cannot get the registration number.Did BMC know that their policies of number plate swapping would cause sooo much controversy in later years? I'll bet that Bill Price etc often have quite a chuckle to themselves over these cars.[Bill has incidentally checked BMO over and has said that it IS the original car!!]
