Anyone who owns an A

Post by Jez 356 »

Anyone who owns an A usually dreams of putting C or 912 running gear on it - then you have the best of both worlds !!

Unless you want to have it as a show queen then it is a no brainer.

Enjoy test driving both and then go for the A !!!

the A, is the lovely model than B, but the B is the alternative if it's difficult to buy the correct A base.....or the outlaw base.....
it's the question of the money now.....

I ended up with a B with an A front end . . . !

best of both worlds I guess . . . although it's a replica A front end put on due to bang some years ago :shock:

indeed the choice is difficult :?
and the adviser is not payer ( sorry for the term but in french is more clear : les conseilleurs ne sont pas les payeurs :drunken: :drunken: )
but if you can choose the cars the best investment actualy is the A ....but in matching number :cry: so the B stay a very parctical car and I think in this case the best choice :roll:

Hi all - well, I bought the 'A'. Collect it in a couple of weeks time once a few bits and pieces are sorted out. Thank you all for your comments - overwhelming majority were saying what I kind of knew - just needed to be sure! Hope to see some of you at Hedingham. Off to dream of how to gently tweak it now....! :headbang:
