I remember Cristian Mineef's SPA (?)(spelt wrong I know) was quick, and there was the Bonner V6 white car that was awsom when it ran (now for sale).

A bit sparse? That is a classic understatement. Then if you couple the dwindling numbers in Clubmans the sports libre classes are dying on their feet!
The Fidoes have been running in the 2 litre class ever since the Hart let go! I understand that the ex-Barrie Lines MP43 is having a German V8 stuffed in the back and should be out next year for a limited airing in Scottish events.
The Mineef car is the SPA and it can be seen regularly at Gurston Down in the hands of Chris Cannell - pity he doesn't travel further afield!
The other superb bit of Sports Libre kit is the Mannic - another car rarely seen 'Up North'.
The March-Bonner is as you say for sale but the asking price is highly inflated compared to what else is on the market.
