It was a Mk1 but retained by the company for trials and remained in silver, it looked great because the silver dope finish contrasted with the highly polished ally panels up front.
It ended up looking pretty much like a latter Mk (hence my mistake) as it gained rotol 3 bladed prop and ‘fat’ spinner and the metal wings.
I don’t know what its ultimate fate was.
