Whats it like on the motorway? I only ask as it will spend the majority of its time there, and with 45 raging bhp I don't know if it'll be a chore. Not too fussed about glacial pace as long as it can bumble along.

Far from it really, just want a competent cruiser that can sit at 60-70 without exploding my ears, itself and my wallet. All while returning 35 + mpg.

Fantastic runabouts these, before I started my conversion I saw well over 40 mpg easily, they just sip petrol. Looks like a very solid shell, lot of car there for the money, mine happily sat at 70 all day long as well!
Also serviceable items are cheap and they're so easy to work on. glwts.

Lovely old thing - would £400 buy it? Appreciate its a bit cheeky but I'm also in Cheltenham and can collect quickly! If it's offensively cheeky I do apologise
