Massive Thanks to Chad for a huge amount of help with this, I have always wondered how many
and what colour they all were, so here is the whole nine yards, with only two missing  ;)

I shall try to keep it all up to date as time passes, here are a few of the 61 sold so far :)

I have a Lwb shell in yellow bought off eBay 6 years ago. Not sure what number it is - no plate or anything but in the middle of the build at the moment!

I'm sure Chad will be able to work out which one it is. I don't know how long LWB ones have been available, but if you bought it second hand six years ago it must be an early one I think.

Pretty sure its Doon L011-05  (moulded in 2005).

Steve - LWB production actually started in 2003, just 2 years after the SWB. 

If was originally Left Hand Drive it was one of 3 kits that went upto scotland to be built up as hire cars in Spain. Unfortunately the guy commisiioning the work did a bunk and the guys in Scotland had to sell the kits on to re-coup some cash.

By the Way.  Peter on your excellent history of the Doon's, the pictures on L011 are actually one's of L014 (same number plate). Easy to do with all those yellow ones moulded at that time.

I'm sure Mr Targa can provide you with some pictures of his build to fill in the L011 slot.  ;-)up ;-)up
