The references in LM yearbooks to the ADA 01 being de Cadenet-based are apparently somehat wide of the mark.
It was apparently based on a "1974 Group 6 Lola showcar" (2-litre I think), without any previous race history. It used the side "pontoons" from the Lola chassis, the rest of the monocoque being fabricted by Marchant & Cox.
It was sold to Yugoslavia, may have been the "Lola-Mazda" used in Interserie by Fredy Jerancic (and w-o early in 1989)
Motor Sport has just arrived to-day, so I'll be interested to see the T280 advert...
