Well done! Nobel 200, to be exact. Built in Newtownards, Co Down, in the ‘50s, by Short Bros and Harland of shipbuilding fame.

Yeah, I remember that. Doesn't it also use a Mundano engine (but with some turbos).

My favourite parts bin twinnies are the Rover 45 and the Pagani Zonda that both had the same aircon controls.
