I would say yes. The record says it’s a 1961 car first registered in NZ in 1961. So I would say almost certainly assembled here by Dominion Motors.

Interesting GB sourced, but inappropriate, number plates.

One is too new, the other too old and on modern "EU" plates.
"Now that chassis number is particularly interesting ‘cos it’s the one after the one before, which is the one after mine, not many people know that"

They most definitely do count. They're classic and they're on the road!

We are both sort of like “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service“ (thus the Interceptors and the UK plates)…. But we didn’t expect to be “outed” by the detectives on this board after we posted this picture!
