I am sure they did get raced here in New Zealand. As you say most things did although I can't immediately find any photos. The "A40" in this photo http://www.flickr.com/photos/warwick...7609140652794/ is a replica of a very successful car from the 60s and 70s.

I have somewhere an auld copy of Autosprout with a rce report at Goodwood club race circa 64/65 . . .Terry Nichols got beaten to 3rd in his LC by a 1430cc A40 . . . .
