Hello, and thanks for allowing me to join. I am considering buying an Austin 7, trouble is, I've never even sat in one let alone drive one. I've had many classics, but mainly 50s and 60s cars. I bought a Morris 8 series E many years ago and it was awful. Truly awful. It put me off older stuff. But.. When I see a box saloon or a special I'm stopped in my tracks and am tempted. So. My question is, what are they like to live with and drive on these modern roads? Are there any models or years to avoid? I'm pretty good at spannering and not scared of oily bits. Just looking for opinions really.
