I remember a rainy night 1985/86 ish travellng with a mate to wakefield of all places to look at one of those.
At the time it wasnt a classic in fact i seem to recall they were in the not wanted almost banger group. He didnt buy it because the bloke wanted to much. Maybe he knew something we didnt back then |

you can get classic insurance with some companies after 15 years, but it's normally 20-25 years, but the mav will have fallen a part by then lol
