When this Cub was spotted on ebay by Wayne
it was called "Foxy" by its then owners Alan & Corina,
below is what they said about it...

ANDERSON CUB

Meet “Foxy”, our fun and fabulous Moke Look-a-Like.
Another of our very many cars, who now has to be sold to raise money
to rebuild the others – we still have 10 cars and this is
meant to be another sensible moment!!! MOT ‘til 25th August
2006, is taxed until the end of October and ready to drive away.
These are quite rare and there are not many in this sort of condition
– YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
FOXY:
• Kit Car based on a Mini 1100
• Fully galvanised body – no rust
• Aluminium tread plate floor and side panels
• Great fun car – turns heads! You’ll need to
use the headlight flash often, ‘cos everyone wants to wave
at you
• Low mileage – only 49022
• Full wet weather gear
• Alloy wheels
• Specially designed towing frame – attach it to your
camper van
Wayne went to visit Foxy and her former owner Paul, He was quite
supprised Foxy was not as red as the pictures sugested, it is not
a base red as you would expect from the pictures on eBay but was
a metalic red which Wayne thought was Rover Nightfire Red (Paul
has bought some touch up from Halfords - they have the best non
manufaturer paints Wayne has used - and it seems Wayne was right)as
used on Metros & Minis a nice eye catching colour. The other
supprising item on Foxy is the rear seat...it is from a Suzuki 4x4
probably a SJ410
Paul worked on Foxy over the winter ('05/'06) having the alloys
referbished and the bumpers and rollbar repainted black and he had
lots of other work done too. Sadly Paul only got to enjoy Foxy on
one run to Brooklands Museum and then had to sell her.
Foxy is now living on the Isle of Wight with a doctor - the say
laughter is the best medicine well Cub bring lots of smiles so lets
hope they are good medicine too!
