Noticed on 22B that you are looking at buying Nicky Grist's old 22b...
Was at Keith Price in Abergavenny about a month ago as I had a good look at it while I was there!! Bloody mint car, some choice mods and a serious bit of kit!!
However, I was under the impression that they had sold it, so give them a call on 01873811555 and see if they can give you some info.

Hope this repays the favour of sendimg me your photos bud!!!

the car is now available through a company in Manchester called Just Sports..

If i knew Keith Prices had it then i would have bought it straight away instead of having to go all the way up there now...

Thanks for the info Twigs and keep an eye out for the next batch of pics, especially if i get the 22B

The car was sold by Robinsons in Rochdale on behalf of a customer about 8 months ago. It has since changed hands about 3 times .Robinsons sold it for £28k.
It was offered around for £24k before Just Sports got it.
It hasn't got a proper 22B engine in it , because Nicky gave the original engine to the purchaser of his other car who'd blown that engine up.
There was a piece in Banzai Magazine about it. The engine was built and fitted at Autosportif in Oxfordshire.

Avoid like the plague then.
I know it is a cheaper 22B, but don't skimp on what is the best scooby ever made, I can assure you that you would regret it in the long-term.

There is a guy on www.scoobyzone.co.uk called 666 who has one possibly for sale, I have seen this and can vouch for the fact that it is really clean and well looked after!
