A proper one, a series one in the right colour. But I don't think the black rear panels right. The early ones were the same colour as the car. Laters gained the black rear panel. :o:

The original owners handbook had one just like it on the cover complete with Rodderz spec chrome rostyles.

Love an "E" me.

Despite the fact you hate my favoured choice of wagon, you would however have had a good old chin wag with my old man, rest his soul, he had G plate 1600E in brown, on Rostyles, and with 70's twin aerials :cool:
Sold it and bought a Coke bottle estate 2000E in purple :(
He regretted selling that E 'till the day he died :( I'm not going to do the same with my Touring or FS1E. :D

Here you go Trev, just remembered I had this ropey pic, me aged 3 ish in circa 1978 with my Dad, The 1600E and Zeebee the dog :D

PS You know I like old stuff, the Levi Strauss belt my dad is wearing, I still wear now, everyday, and have done for over 25 years :D

That would be Suluki bronze Rog. Quite rare for one of them.

And Purple Velvet wasn't that common on the mk3's either. A man that stepped outside the box it seems.

Maybe he had a hidden flare (not the ones in the picture!) for odd colours and cars, sadly this changed when my wicked step came on the scene, it went like this after the purple Tina, red Datsun F11a, yellow Datsun 120y estate, red mk2 cav estate, nissan something, that'll do, you get the idea :(
Oh he did buy a red (well pink) 1600E to restore, the wicked step mother soon ensured it left the driveway one day for the scrap man..... the f ucking bitch. :x
