The KN shown in photos 1 and 2 could well be KN0384. It was bought from the Bone Brothers in about 1972 and imported into Canada as a complete restoration project. I owned it for many years, never finished the project. Then KN0384 went back to UK for restoration as an original 4 door pillarless saloon, but now a recreation. I bought KN0389 as a replacement project, now restored to original condition and colours.

Barry Bone took me for my first MMM Ride in Prince Bira’s F2 when he was operating out of Steyning and I was considering buying a MMM. What a first ride! Never looked back since.

Fidget is now in Switzerland where lucky current owner Urs Langen is restoring it.

Nice pic of my L2 #002 ( MG2415) The L2 is now fully restored to a high standard and resides in New Hampshire. I only know of the history from the mid 50’s so if anyone has additional photos or info, I would be most grateful for details.
