If you look for the Sylva history on the website, it should explain better. IIRC this was a budget version, commonly known as Mk3? I don't think JP made many.

Hi

That's a good one - the answer probably should be 'none' but.. that doesn't mean there aren't any as there's a few unusual ones about.

The Mk3 was built from 88 to 90, Outboard front end and most had a fiberglass tunnel, but one or two didn't, they we're built with a Mk2 tunnel - for, one assumes, a very good reason at the time - i.e. that's what the customer wanted? going racing??
(I have one..)

So - at a guess a Mk2 with a fiberglass tunnel could have been a similar sort of situation at around the same time?

Don't know if that helps!
