I agree about doors - of which of course the Speedy does have two.
Long gone are the days when I could jump in, slide down behind the wheel, and start the engine before pulling away at what seemed like enormous speed.... It felt very good!
If I were looking for a good sporting Austin to drive around in, I would certainly consider buying it - what a superb re-creation it looks like. Plus the fact that it comes with a spare Speedy engine.

Sad to hear that.
Given that we’re told that this car has a genuine Speedy type sports chassis and a genuine Speedy type pressure fed engine it’s much more authentic than many, including Ulster reps that may aspire to the same price range.
