wolf in sheep's clothingnice colour -- Hilman/Routes group/Chrysler used to have a colour like that called Grasshopper Green ..
used to have a 1725 Hunter GLS with the 120 Holbay engine in it, that colour -- I put an overdrive box in it out of a Humber Sceptre ..
worked in 3rd and top .. gave a nice split on 3rd to 4th with a switch in the stick top -- very fast car in its day (1976/7) -- OAX 234M
Nott.s plod used to use them - wasn't a whole lot that could outrun them back then - would 125mph in 4th at redline .. and would pull it too
.. used to have great fun playing with Doly Sprints and Lotus,s ... no bloody cameras in '76/'77 ... if you couldn't see a plod there wasn't one 4 branch and twin 40 Webers with a Holbay top end - factory std.
... they were a fun car to drive (as said, for their time) .... only down side was their need for constant attention to the webers ... could balance 'em in my sleep - still got me balancing gauges somewhere nice dash too for their day - water, fuel, amps & oil

" Electric car prices will fall further this year as manufacturers resort to heavier discounting in an effort to boost sales ...
He said: “Getting consumers to buy new cars from retailers [generally] is challenging and we’ve seen discounts go from effectively nothing up to around 10pc or so today on average.
“That’s true of [petrol] vehicles and EVs, but a bit more so for EVs because they are just not, in the minds of consumers, going to command such a big premium over their [petrol] counterparts.”
The level of price reductions has already reached record highs this year, with new EVs sold at an average discount of 10.6pc in April on the online dealer’s marketplace. ........ The Government introduced the zero emissions vehicle (ZEV) mandate in January, requiring at least 22pc of carmakers’ sales to be electric this year regardless of demand. .......In April, the number of EVs sold to consumers dropped by 22pc "
be giving them away with cornflakes soon
