This can't be right but...

The manufacturer date is also correct though? It's surely a 360 because it has colour coded bumpers.. Strange...

They could have swapped bumpers

Could've but doubt it, besides.. it's under 360 in the search.. so it adds up. The only thing that doesn't add up is the date.

Hmmm, 1990 I could believe, just, if it had sat at a dealers for sometime unregistered, but 1991 on a H, I dunno. Only real test would be to ask what the engine size is on the logbook. Interesting find!

Given that it has PAS aswell i would say it is a 60. As for the reg its not an impossibility the last ones of the 340's are on a J plate. And it is possible to get 400's which were stopped in production in 1996 on an R plate, and 240's as late as L i believe!!!

I forgot to add it all depends on when the car was actually registered. As my car is an F reg and on the V5 is registered in 1988, however the car is an 89 model as it has a rear high level brake light and came with an 89 owners manual!!!!

Well as far as model years go, they normally run a year ahead - ie: mine is a late 1988 registered (so probably built months earlier) 89MY car.

That car probably sat around unsold for a year - so watch for rust. Pretty pimp having an H reg 360...probably about the only one in the country. Probably a B200K too...I'd buy it.

cheers

On a similar Topic does anyone know of any J reg 340's as there is one in Ludlow!!!!

J reg 340s aren't so rare....ie: you do see them from time to time. I took my B14 PAS kit from one, for example. An H reg 360 on the other hand is a bit

Yeah, there's a J reg 340 local to me on and off, seems to live away a lot of the time, but returns around the holidays! A H reg 360 is indeed something rare, getting towards hens teeth and the rocking horse crap. I've got a G plated 360, which is also pretty rare. And all the G plated 360's I know of were only just G, as in they made the new plate cut off by a day, which makes a H very rare. As suspected, it propbably sat around before being sold.

Kar's a Late '91, 6 weeks off a J, and there is a J on my road on the island, and I believe Shimon has a J too. Beast was a G plated '60GLT, I'm almost tempted to go and look at this one... That wasn't in the plan

Go for it

It's exceedingly cheap!

Just had another proposition in the last 20mins, might still go and check that one out
