  well after almost 2 years it got its first drive today, never drove a series 2a and it was some experience, need to get brakes sorted but pleased how it drove even though I need pop eye arms to turn the wheel 😂

Well done. Have you discovered it's comically large turning circle yet.😂

Bigdog

Yes extremely large 😂

That does look good.

At the risk of repeating myself, I cannot recall seeing many ex-Mil 109's with lights in the wings.

Yes, they clearly bought them, but I wonder how many are still about, given the relatively short production run?
(Any others on here, I wonder)?

Good to see this one finished and back on the road. :cheers-man

Bigdog

Would it add to the rarity if not many left with the lights in the wings

It might do, a little.
Yours is a nice example, which is what would have the most effect on its value

Bigdog

Thanks for the positive feedback, it makes the hard work worth while

Looks great. It's good to see another ex mil soft top 109 on the road.
 :cheers

Great job, Bigdog. Always good to see another back on the road. You'll soon have the required 'Popeye' arms 🤣
