This is a LM Sovra buggy shell. It's a french made buggy as far as I know and I am sure there are few if any in the UK and probably not many other worldwide. Some do pop up if you Google the image but not many. The first 6 photos is what you are bidding on, the other 6 photos are similar buggies to show you what you could do with this shell.
The buggy is in Norwich.
Comes complete with all panels, screen surround and screen, most of the lights, original bonnet badge (Extreemly rare!), rear seats, soft top and a few other small bits.

I bought this of Ebay France a few years ago and got it shipped back here which was a bit of a struggle at the time but it has been sitting and me hatching plans for it.... life has caught up with me and so I have to travel light and so it is reluctantly for sale!
So it is a futuristic looking wedge shaped beauty of a buggy with roll hoop and rear seats (bit tight for an adult but fits kids great!)
You could easily build a roof onto it for local weather as I planned to do so could be used all year round. As shown in a photo, this is not included, i just found that photo on the net to show what could be done.
Good strong well made shell and in a sea of GP replicas it's great to stand out! I have the shell and some other components (rear seats, windscreen, engine cover etc) so just need to add a chassis and powertrain and some vision!
Shell is in good condition and has been built and painted before but was clearly dismantled for a resto/revamp that never happened and that's how I bought it!
It also has an opening bonnet for extra storage which is a nice touch.

I have not got round to photos on this forum yet but the photos are on the ebay auction...

My advice would be to read the rules for selling on here and put a price up pretty quick  ;)

Just the body up for sale Hudge but that could be made into a practical daily driver with a bit of roof and some doors. Storage space as well for trips abroad and sitting on the correct side when there all though a righthand drive conversion would be better for here.

Reckon a gullwing door job on it would be fun as it was a futuristic buggy way back 40 years ago.

Alas Hudge its just a shell that is being sold, but I must confess that I absolutely love that iconic 70`s Retro shape

Not tall enough for me to drive with a roof on, else I would have been quite interested myself.

It reminds me of a grown up Bond Bug! ;-)up

I am selling a shell as i don't have time space etc to do it myself but i would like a complete buggy i can drive straight away!
And i suppose they do look similar which shows my tastes don't vary too much!
To be honest i don't feel as i will get a buggy as i have too much other stuff going on but doesn't stop the dreaming!!
So someone has bid on the ebay auction so it will sell!
Just clearing out all the old stuff also as i will be loosing both my garages soon due to a change in owner! so have to consolidate!
Thanks to all for comments! :-)

The path through life does not always go as planned but you have a buyer so good news and hopefully the new owner will return it to the road..

Indeed i hope they put it on the road as well! I just know that i couldn't have put the time in to build it properly. So that's why i need a Bounty Hunter that is done or nearly so!!!  :)
