Post by: mullins on January 26, 2006, 01:32:57 PM
Just wonering because no one on this forum seems to own one and I haven\'t heard of one being mentioned yet.

I\'m personally a bit of a fan of these!

I was just thinking this the other day after seeing your website and the red wagon (808) Think it looks amazing! Would be a great daily driver with a stockish 12a in it. Maybe a 10a front. though i have never seen one in the uk or heard of one here.
 cheers, michael.

was this it ? sat in a garden in Norfolk apparently and then scrapped due to lack of interest.

It does look "a little" rusty :(

Just been looking on Autotrader, there is a 929 estate on there, I believe that there was a rotary version called a Luce. Would be interesting if a rotary could fit this.
