Welcome retrotoe.

I have to say over the 2 door and four door HB's the estate wins hands down for practicality and rarity, and the knockout styling is hardly compromised. I'm envious. What spec is it: Deluxe, or an SL? I've just discovered my Deluxe 2-door has - SHOCK! - a luggage-compartment lamp, and it works! It did initially gave me a start as I thought there was something on fire in the boot. I'm seeking opportunitys to have the boot open and the lights on simultaneously to flaunt this unexpected exotic feature.

Don't keep the rest of us in suspense, let's see this beastie. :smiliesbroken:

Hello and welcome. Very few HB est left now. If you have trouble posting the pictures, email them to me. If its got the discs and servo either they have been swapped for the original drums at some point , or the car was a '90' spec with higher performance engine. Also if its 1256 its not the original engine, HB's were 1159, 1600. Whats the reg number?
