Re: Classic for under £10K
That BSA three wheeler is very rare. I nearly got run over by one when they first started the MOT testing.
The brake testing was done by driving up the workshop and hitting the brakes whilst having a gauge sitting on the passenger floor.
I was oiling one of the floor jacks, the foreman drove up towards me and the brakes were useless, I jumped out of the way but he thought he'd hit me and got out white faced and shaking.
This is the tool.

I wonder if he did just intend to take a profit or if he changed his mind after driving it?

Wouldn't mind a nice Humber Hawk or even better Super Snipe. Haven't seen one for ages though.

Re: Classic for under £10K
Just looked at those cars Neil, didn't realise so many of them still existed. We had a '58 Hawk and '59 and '60 Snipes, lovely cars. My wife used to work for a Rootes garage in Sevenoaks so we got them at very advantageous prices.
