It looks VERY small - but then they are*!  And it does look like a 'B', from the height of the rear wings, so no, it won't be my 'A'!

*People don't believe me when (without the car present) I show them how high the top of the windscreen is, by pointing two inches below the belt on my jeans.

(Yes, I know)

Was indeed from Southport, where there were quite a few Bonds when I was a teenager (in the seventies). Something to do with nearby Preston, and the lack of hills?
