Welcome to new member of TMF Sid Trunley has sent me the pictures below to share of his very rare surviving example of a 'coachbuilt' Tilling Mini De Ville. Sid is not sure what to do with the car which had been off the road for 15 years before he bought it from Hampstead. He has owned it for 3 years and drives it regularly and it is 'as it was' when he bought it. The lady he purchased it from said it was originally on private registration plates and she was given the car by the company she worked for when she retired. It's automatic and has the unique Tilling 'Landau roof conversion and electric windows with quarter lights, walnut dash and door cappings, sports seats, etc.
Here is a link to Sid's first post in the 'Introduce Yourself' section of the forum:-
