Oh excellent - I can retire to the home for delinquent old dodderers again. Should you need to contact me it's - Padded cell 6, Block 3, The Nuffield Centre for Delinquent Idiots, South West Division. :woohoo:

Anyway - Six cylinder engine, six body shells, created 1967/1968 Mabel MBL 546 E and RMO 699F Paddy Hopkirk and Andrew Hedges 10th overall 3rd in class 1968 Sebring, Mabel took part in 1968 Marathon de Route 82 hours at Nurburgring
See http://www.them-g-c.com/index_files/Page741.htm
http://www.them-g-c.com/index_files/Page4341.htm

The picture montage was for the 6 cylinder engine, the specialised fuel cap and the orange/yellow "thingamebob" :-? stuck on the roof!! S stands for Sebring I understand, Paddy - for Paddy Hopkirk , Mabel for - well Mabel, and the longer time at Nurburgring was the 82 hour 1968 Marathon de Route. :broon:

I thought it was different from "where in the world" that I have done so far. Happy quizing!! :bust:

"For Space.... For Grace... For Pace" was the advertising slogan used for pre WW2 MG large saloon cars. It was first used for the SA.

Jaguar later used the slogan for their cars.
