Guess that was the year of import then, which after posting above I've googled a bit and it would look to be at latest a '63 from the engine lid.

Yes, I would say either 1962 or 1963.

Registration letters CA = Cape Town.

There is also the possibility (small admittedly) that the car was a T, with the higher-level trim fitted as an option, as was possible at the time, thus making the car a T LUX.

But as the car was to be used to tow a caravan, I would put my money on it being an E - for the extra power.

I think the Sportomatic transmission was fitted only to the T and the E - but not the S.

With its higher-level trim, that would make the car an E.

Since I started aeromodelling, I've loved these light aircraft, the Cessna 172. For me, the best looking light aircraft ever. anyone actually been up or flown in one? https://www.aircraftcompare.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/268.jpg Many years ago, in Zimbabwe, I was at the controls for about half...

Mine arrived this morning! This is always a busy time for Royal Mail, but I didn't know that they had taken to delivering mail on a Sunday!

Thank you Thomas, the calendar is great.

And ditto from me.

Arfor.

Many thanks - Arfor.
