Fairthorpe Pathfinders settle in Germany.


One Fairthorpe that seems to have moved around a bit lately is the Metallic Burgundy Pathfinder V8 which was sold on Ebay to Barry Mays, Barry had previously owned the Ford V6 engined Pathfinder which now lives with Wolfgang Puritz in Germany.  Unfortunately Barry then had to sell the V8 car as he was unable to work due to a shoulder injury so the car reappeared on Ebay. This time it was spotted by Wolfgang who mentioned it to his friend Alfons Rubbert, a deal was done and Alfons now owns the V8 engine car, he also informs me that he also used to own the V6 car before selling it to Wolfgang.........Confused? I`m not surprised! 
 
So these two Pathfinders are owned by good friends who live very close to one another in Germany, Alfons has kindly sent me some pictures taken recently when he and Wolfgang got together with their Pathfinders, between them they own 1/4 of the 8 cars that Motorville (Watford) produced in the 1980`s. The Burgundy Rover V8 powered car was number five and the lilac Ford V6 engined one was the last produced of the eight.
