Here's the ad car: Here is a Beach Mk 4: I think it is whatever this contraption is, but I don't speak French: Notice the rounded nose, rear scoops, and wider driver's compartment.

Y'know, maybe it's just me, but I can't remember seeing many vintage D-Sport racers for sale over the last few decades...

In reply to stroker:

Could be they just went vintage, that's where my old car went. The later obsoleted cars, even the formula chassis MC conversions could still make good regional cars. Prolly still some stashed away in barns too... I hope so.
