Dear Laura,

From your last response you are obviously not reading this thread. You need to re-read or at least take these two very significant facts into consideration:

1-You're considering buying something to drive that meets the criteria for being an antique.

2-The fockin' thing is British.

Next case. Nothing more needs to be said unless you're a total psychotic. Although I gather that none of this means diddly shit to you, it will when your lights quit working in the middle of narrow, decreasing radius, off-camber, curve on your way home from Grannie's at midnight......and they will.

They were great fun in their day at the tracks, all tricked out with the best of what Paddy Hopkirk et al could provide. We used to have great fun watching them rollover, flipping off Turn 4 at Nelson Ledges.

Get a grip.......you'll need one because Girling never had a clue as to what they were doing. Go buy a real car.
