There seem to be quite a few differences: the wheels, obviously, but they have different front bumper blades, the doors seem to be different, and even the slope of the windscreen appears to be different. Maybe someone in Spain produced a number of them?
Yes Mike, I believe that it is the same car. When it arrived in the country it was pale grey-blue - there are other photos of it in 2013 in the same condition at http://vintageman.zenfolio.com/p68622427...#h63f84db1 . In the first picture above, it happened to be in the background of a photo of another car that the dealer was selling. I believe that this is the guy that Ally bought it from and that he "improved" it before selling it on.
I wondered about the apparent difference in windscreen pitch, but I think this is an optical illusion due to having clipped the picture from a corner of a much larger one.
