The earliest 1951 MM on my list, which explains the lowlight wings. Last for sale in 1994

It only sold for £1500. I thought they were worth more than that?

This one was on an auction not too long ago. I cant remember if it sold or not, I think the bidding only got up to £2500 or so. I'm suprised, I thought low lights were rare and worth a lot more than this. This one is particularly nice.

A Series MM with an A Series engine will not be worth as much as an original side valve

Rarity only breeds high prices if there is a high demand.
A lot of people are put off from "using" an MM and think they are just for purists... I'd disagree, and I think Mike is an excellent advert for the MM (as he drives it, instead of just garaging it) :D
