Lucas rear spotlampReluctant sale, we would like to keep it in the family but it just isn't physically or financially practical for us to keep. I have tried to include as much information here as possible but the list will never be quite comprehensive. Happy to pass any questions on to my dad, who has all the details stored in his head.
