Just found another Dutton (well Eagle P21) in Bolton

Just coming out of ASDA on Mancester Road, and spied a Dutton on the carpark at Halford's. So turned round and waited for the owner to come out. Turns out it's an Eagle P21 which he build about 10 years ago. He live just down the road from me, the guys also called Dave. He said it's been off the road for 2 years. Wasn't till I was back in the car that I realised I didn't take a photo.
