I've owned LVF 570V since July 2002, built in Antwerp, Belgium and registered on 15th March 1980. Tricentrol, Mile Cross Lane, Norwich supplied it new to a Mr N Middleton, Easton. he owned it until 1998 when he had only clocked up 33K. The 2nd owner lived in Spalding, Lincolnshire but never used it in the 4 years he had it. I then bought it for £475 and for the 1st year used it daily, but realising it was too good for this it was then only used summertime for shows. LVF has every piece of paperwork from new including every MOT, tax disc, order form and new car invoice. Over the years i have done various jobs to improve it condtion wise as it's virtually original i'm trying to make it look nice but not over the top, i think i've achieved that.      |

Well I definitely think you have achieved what you were after! It looks pretty imaculate to me. I cant say I have seen one in a very long time. The interior is spotless. Lovely car

wow, a rare specimin and nice to see another. Great cars to drive, and that interior is awesome!
I had a 1300 2dr in yellow this time last year, paid £300 for it. Sold it on when I realised it was to rare to go modifying which was my plan. It went into the owners club!

3 door was rare, even back in the day. I seem to remember the Ascona was a a more common sight with 3 doors.
My old man had an R plate 1600L in lovely beige. We drove to Spain in it one year, didn't even have rear seat belts, and he used to hit 100 mph in it. RVN844R, RIP.
