passed my test in january 1967. couple of months later i purchased a 1936 lagonda lg45 saloon for 150 notes in hitchin. full tank of petrol{over 20 gallons}. was surprised by this but the owner said that he,d had younger people buying cheap cars from him before and a few years later came back for more expensive stuff. drove it for 2 years. wish i,d kept it as it would have been a quiarter of a million pound car. feel sorry for youngsters nowadays as i doubt those who are interested will never be able to afford some of the stuff i had in my 20,s.
