    Indeed welcome back Steve.
    As per your PM willing to help or lend encouragement as required!
    Always up for a trip north of the border to Nicolaland.

    Chris, is that Steve's Allora or is it the ex-Litton/CAE demonstrator that ended up with Lionel Gooch ( and mysteriously got destroyed in a garage fire.......)
    UDN something was the reg.

    Hi Guys

    Yes Chris great feeling to have it reside back in my garage and to have the space to work on it, Phil will be good and take my time, will be using some hired labour for the heavier jobs so as to keep the missies off my case !

    John D I suspect a working holiday on the cards for you if you are up for it.

    Yes the picture is of my Allora, I still have the 14 inch revolutions it is sitting on but god knows where. For a short time its picture was used in the Litton brochure, think it was the first Allora to have the rear suspension modified by Dave Carrson

    As Craig says John, I think the car you're thinking about had black Revolution RFX wheels.
    The front wheel offset on a CAE is different to an Allora.
    The red lettering for the 'STRATO'S' and 'b BERTONE' is probably unique too. A good clue at least?

    Re: Back in the fold

    The 'Corse' on the caption is confusing.

    There's also the Allora to Litton overlap, which muddies things:
