Middlebridge 35
This car was yet another one of Dennis Nursey's Middlebridge Company cars. The early gallery photo shows MB 35 parked to the side of the Middlebridge Racing HQ in Milton Keynes 1989. The racing car is a Reynard 89D and was driven by Mark Blundell to 5th place in the Birmingham Superprix soon after this picture.
Dennis Nursey's specification for MB35 included the introduction of the Renault Electric Blue, as used for the Renault 5 turbo, to the Middlebridge paint range. Middlebridge Scimitar Ltd. 1st registered this car on 04.08.1989 with 5 miles on the clock.
MB 35 was purchased by the 2nd owner from the Hedingham Car Centre, (Scimitar Dealer) on 01.05.1991 and she has remained in the same family ever since, being transferred within the family, on 20.06.2020 with a healthy 109,836 on the clock.
This car has been in regular use on the road throughout its life whilst adhering to routine maintenance and servicing schedules. She remains an original Middlebridge, including the paintwork with exception of some minor touch-ups to scratches and chips.
