Always my quandary with these 100 / 200s is:

facelift model with zinc-coated steel and flappy handles?

OR

first series with proper door handles and more rust?

As late as possible.

re the Astra above  -  Richard Whitely used to be the mayor of Wetwang.  And in Douglas Adams' The Meaning Of Liff, Wetwang is descibed as "a moist penis".  Actually, none of that has anything to do with the Astra.

There's only another Birotor for sale on the same c&c page.

These should take the pressure off the bloke with the brown one that seems to be at every meet and show I've ever been to.

 

I know I should admire the engineering bravery and how advanced these things were, but my favourite bit is the CX wheels, I'd be quite happy with a 1220 Club with those rims.

the engine has been completely overhauled (new crankshaft, bearings, valves, valve guides, valve seats, water pump, block renewed and machined...)

 

But it's "complete original unrestored".

but it was never reassembled and put on the car

 

But it "has been completely overhauled".

 

 

I'm getting slightly sick and tired of this stupid waffling.
