Hi all

Who knows this shooting break ?

It was at the last Goodwood Road Racing Club?s Open Day
I'd be curious to see other pictures of this special plus 2

I can't tell you other than I had seen it before a few years ago. I believe there is more than just the one and seem to remember the first one was made for some specific use like police, NHS, AA or some such organisation. Some one did convert another Plus 2 along the same lines and saw some photos which had been taken at the time - it did look very nice indeed, especially inside. It didn't look boxy like a Scimitar GTE but seemed 'spot on' in the same way that the MGBGT did when they put a roof on the MGB.
Just my opinion but I'd happily swap mine for that shooting brake.

Very nice car !
Thanks guys for the pictures.
I only knew the baby "Elanbulance" which had been tried in a french magasine some times ago.

Thanks all to help me to improve my english ! May I have to say "shooting brake" and not "shooting break" :mrgreen:
The only shooting break I have found on the internet is a Mercedes ! Be sure I won't do the mistake anymore :D

Not a good looking car. Looks like a cross between an Elan and a hearse.
