My dad had a Mk VI. You really can get four adults, two kids and a dog in one, and get from Sheffield to Blackpool and back in a day only overheating once *.

Looks like it has a Manchester coded "limited use" trade plate which was white on red. I don't know when they were phased out or indeed why they were limited compared to the more common "General Use" red on white ones. JeeExEll 1 Link to post Share on other sites
