From DVLA site :- "Cylinder Capacity (cc) 659CC "Wow! :-)

Yep, Kei-car rules rule! (under 660cc nowadays). Back in the 60s/70s it was 360cc max, in Holland here they sold the Honda N360 and Suzuki Fronte 360, but when they were critized for their tiny engines they gave us the N400 and Fronte 500. Huuuuge improvement! :D

Great to see the old Paramount getting some love on here - this one like many survivours has lost its enormous original rear light clusters.

Yeah the originals were as high / long as the bootlid! (yes I have a rear light fetish for all moving objects! :lol: ) I wonder why they changed them? :?
Two reasons I'm guessing:

1. They have a habit of going black really quickly, and

 

2. A single lens probably costs as much new, if you can find a supplier, as one of those entire replacement BMAC clusters. (But they do pop up on Ebay from time to time)
