Can't afford a 7 now (new guttering etc cost me loads!!) but saw this and wondered if it was any good.

The owner had this to say about the company....
quote:
Griffon had an excellent reputation for quality, very strong well put together bodies. Fully comp with 4 drivers £130 through Adrian Flux.
So nice cheap insurance too!!
Anyone have any idea on the BHP of the 2litre bluebird engine?

I had never heard of them before --- looks similar in many areas to the Cortina based Spartan which were truly awful in all respects
