Hi. This is my current car. Has anyone here owned it in the past?, there is some history which implied a TSSC member had it at some time. Any info on it's history would be great please.

Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave! Unfortunately I have no information about the history of your car, but I also own a Vitesse MkI Convertible that according to BMIHT certificate was gunmetal from factory (Royal blue now). I would love to see some pictures of a Vitesse painted Gunmetal if you have any to upload. I have Googled but there are not many "gunmetal pictures" available on the internet. Do you have the heritage certificate for your Vitesse? If not, I recommend that you get one, a lot of useful information there  https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/archive/heritage-certificates

Hi Roger. Thanks. There are 2 gunmetal Vitesses on Ebay at the mo. The 1 for £11000 looks to me to be the correct colour.  Gunmetal is more of a blue than a grey, though mine looks more greyish  in sunlight!.

I do have some photo's from when I bought the car that I can email you if you don't giving me your email address (don't know if you can PM on this site).

Is the pricey one (MGD...D) Craig Gingells old car?

I like the 1965 Mk1 Vitesse where the vendor claims 'many convertibles are converted Heralds - beware!'
