I've had a bunch of vintage British cars and motorcycles (a long time ago). Lets see now:
a 1958 Matchless 650 twin
a 1961 Norton Atlas 750 twin
a Triumph 200 single
several British parts bikes
a 1959 Nash Metropolition
a 1959 Triumph TR3
a 1962(?) Trimph TR4
a 1962(?) Trimph TR4a
a 1965 Austin Healy Sprite
These motorcycles and cars all had several things in common,
When they were good they were very very good, when they were bad they were horrid... and they were all bad alot, but with constant maintenance and servicing they could be kept running.
