I've no idea.

But i recently saw a copy of an invoice for a later model, and if i recall correctly, that was £575 + dealer taxes and extras (extras like numberplates!). I think the total worked out at £707, and the nice chaps rounded it down to £700.

Bargain!

Travellers were a little more (not much) than the saloons. They were often bought by companies for their salesmen as they had the luggage space to carry samples.
