Sunbar ◊ 2007-01-12 21:25	Yes, 1958-1968 False number plate - by 'H' 1969-70 the rear lights used were from the Austin/Morris 1100 MkII. -- Last edit: 2007-01-12 21:29:25
G-MANN ◊ 2007-01-12 21:29	It's an H-reg which means it was made in at 1990, which makes it an LTI Fairway.
banger134 ◊ 2007-01-12 21:30	Its got crome bumpers so not an lti but austin trust me ave race a few
Sunbar ◊ 2007-01-12 21:32	Definitely an early Austin FX4 and not LTI - chrome bumpers and early rear lights as stated. 1958-1968. ... (even if I got the 'H' suffix/prefix mixed )
antp ◊ 2007-01-12 21:34	plate is probably fake, as it is not on DVLA
Sunbar ◊ 2007-01-12 22:25	Yes the number plate is definitely fake. The small rear lights, chrome bumpers and the direction indicators on the roof all date it as 1958, and before the only major facelift in 1968. The small rear lights are the easiest identification. As seen below rear lights are small as on the left therefore 1958.
