    My thanks to those of you who offered useful suggestions. I'll post up if it happens and how great the day went (hoping!!)

    You could try this, they are based in Faversham. I have seen the car, and it is awesome.

    Not an AC Cobra, or a Shelby Cobra by any chance?

    It is indeed an AC Cobra, this AC427 was imported from USA. Very well done Andy, you know your cars.

    What a gorgeous car, I could have rented one of those in California last time I went, or an '05 Mustang, but instead, I pre booked a Ford Focus :o.
    You only live once, I hope I get another chance.
