For quite a while a mate and I have had differing views on the year of my 850, me believing it was a 61 and my mate reckons it was a 63. The car got written off and cut up with an axe so as it could be hidden amongst other rubbish in the trailer and dropped off at the tip for free. It was back a while when this was ok, you could just get another one out of the paper next weekend! Anyway the numbers are:

Type- yma2s1
Car No- 83494/7350
Engine- 8am/u/h/217541

Thanks in advance, any hepl much appreciated,

All the running gear and body plate survived. Only the shell was stuffed.
