Kit was collected from Germany and should be the opnly one in the country

Its an Irmscher Spider, its not the only one in the country. Quite a few were made, granted most of them are in Europe. Original engine was a 1.4 8v, with a special Irmscher inlet.

Assuming it's the same one, it looks a bit different from the last time I saw it!

Yep it's a spider but it's got the Irmscher Sprint kit and a genuine Irmscher sprint is a rare as hens teeth! So taking one very rare Irmscher spider and making it into a Irmscher Sprint Spider is something very special imo!!

I know someone who has two of these
The Sprint engine was a 1.3 MULTIPOINT fuel injected unit.
The Nova sport engines just about made the emissions but in Sweden they didnt so they gave it injection itstead. That is where the engines come from....
And Joff they are not 1.4 they are 1.3.
