From Andrew Browns site we learn:-

"This car has a lengthy history. It was first converted for trials use by Terry Mattin, then sold onto Tony Squires in Summer 1998. Tony campaigned it for three years before selling it to Patrick Robotham in Summer 2001. Patrick kept it for nearly four years before it was sold to Julian Lack who used it for the 2005 Lands End (only) after which it was resold once again to Richard Clarke - the present owner"
