Robert Sprason’s 1948 Series 1 80” was sold new to Australia and, by late 2015, it had just 21,800 miles on the clock. It still has its original paint and runs on the original date-stamped coil, carburettor and distributor! 

James Foster’s 1958 Series 2 109 served from new until 2006 as the game keeper’s vehicle on a Scottish hunting estate and is still running original electrics.
