Title: Cursor Launch picture?
Post by: Bob Purton on April 19, 2008, 09:07:26 pm

I was at the London Motorshow in about 1985ish and took this picture of the replicar Cursor stand. Was this the year it was launched? (http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z184/rumcars/IMG_00022.jpg)

Title: CURSOR PURCHASED
Post by: Inaheinkel on April 20, 2008, 02:10:41 pm

Hi

I have had a busy morning, went to Sammy Millers Motorbike Museum Autojumble.

Have just purchased a Cursor.

Well, paid the deposit and have to pick up at a later date.

Car is in white, single seater, needs some reasembly.

Well chuffed  :D as it was the only thing microcar I found.

The wife is not so happy, but have assured her that this one will probably have to move on to put some funds back in the pot.

I will try to get a photo on later

Hi

I have an original Tech Specs sheet, it is dated September 1985, so unless it is a later chang I think 1985 is a fairly safe bet

Likewise, I remember there was a photo taken at Beaulieu some years ago, showing a Rovin for sale on the back of a trailer, wonder what happened to it? Well, it looks like there's still bargains to be had, hope you didn't pay too much for it John.

Hi

Here is a picture of the Cursor.

It's a photo af a photo so a bit fuzzy.

This was taken 10 years ago before it had the engine taken out and got put at the back of the garage to have a larger engine fitted.
