Love it, we had a black A35 as a field car to scream about the farm yard in when we was kids..........used to take it in turns to hang on to the roof while a mate screamed it around the yard :lol:

They were just so cheap and plentiful, not recognised as classics and preserved like they are now.................25 quid usually got you a good runner, probably even roadworthy to boot :!:
