It has recently been rediscovered and will be at Beulieu this year apparently. Not sure what condition it will be in by then.... http://www.atfreeforum.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=1998&mforum=mk1mark |

I just hope they don't do a better than original resto on it , it needs to be a bit raw . |

Quote: Jeff Goodliff's special British Vita Hillclimb Mini stands a mere 3ft 6ins from the ground weighs
barely 9 1/4cwt, has a solid rear axle, Godfrey supercharger and fuel injected eight port headed engine churns out 165bhp at the flywheel.

Corgi juniors made a model of that (repainted version shown below , I have a mint version as well but no photo handy) , it's a rather bright shade of purple too ... 
EDIT> I did have a photo of it , it's sitting on top of one of the Corgi Marcos 850gt's ....
